Your poem is amazing Christina. Full of the light of a spinning disco ball. Amazing what we can do when under pressure. It's all within us just waiting to pour out.
Your poetry immersion sounds an inspiring and healing experience. Something I'd love to do. In the mean time I go along to my local open mic nights once a month, if I can manage it around the kids and other commitments, and read something raw and unfiltered. It's a lot of fun, nerve wracking, life enhancing and open hearting!
I find Spotify is also good for poets reading their work. And although he is not a poet I go back again and again to Richard Burton reading Under Milk Wood. I laugh every time at “the tidy wives”.
LOVE LOVE LOVE
So good 👆🏻🧡
So many shivers. Thank you for sharing!

When Death Comes
The disappointment will be overwhelming
The wasted moments
The wasted hate
The wasted love
The wasted years
All those days of killing time
Waiting
Hoping
Praying
For who knows what
Faded memories seen from above
The piling up of failures
As father
As husband
As friend
When Death comes I will be exhausted
