I come with sugar!

While the tears cleansed,
I poured myself a new start.
I was no longer
outside looking in,
I was already in,
just stirred.

A thoughtful piece. Your word choice is rather sober but conveying a fitting mood. The title made me curious, interesting choice too. Your last two lines portrait confusion and turbulence for me but in more positive way. Just a little tempestuous and stirring but being in the right place.

lol, it was all that it was, intended to be ,but to stir. Thank you so much for stopping by dear poet, as your pieces I read often, but I do not comment or respond but are of pure poetic class, a bar to succumb too.:):)

Haha, that's ok. Thank you for your lovely words. I've become lazy in terms of reviewing too...

Is it that easy to pour ourselves a new, fresh start? It seems to me we get stuck too often..
"Just stirred" gives the feeling of being played around by someone else..
Interesting read, Andrew.
P.S. I agree about your comment. I have the same suspicions ;)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Oh yeah Tony has very good ermm radars regarding this lol
True.. there are variables...

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Well we can't expect any less from the social media ;P ;)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

beware of the pakistani ones too ;P they're no less lol

[Dr. YumnaKay]

haha am I the one out of the blue too? ;P lol I agree with the authenticity part ;)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

oh oh Andrew. I think it's more about the understanding ability of the reader/reviewer than the quality of the write. I find your writes quite thoughtful (that is, when I do understand them lol) no flattery there ;)

[Dr. YumnaKay]
