I was hurt
I was depressed
All because of the love I have stressed
So I wrote this poem hoping I would feel a little less
Our hearts are wild creatures that's why our ribs are cages
As the years past by the love inside us ages
Our minds try to tame the beast inside as our hearts soar through the dark night sky But the cloud called love blinds whats visible to the naked eye
From pain to depression our hearts grow with an obsession
It breaks the cage and unleashes my rage that bites at the bottom of this page
My chest burns as it yearns for the taste of life for it has been stabbed by loves knife
My pulse starts to race as I feel the hot water on my face
Emotions are to strong for anybody to contain
So I hide all of mine in the back of my brain...

Snacktime Sonata Challenge Winners
Well, your Snacktime Sonatas made us hungry, and that’s about the highest compliment we have. Food — taste, smell, sensation — is a powerful conduit to the past, to memories pleasurable and painful and sometimes bittersweet, a mixture of comfort and challenge. Congratulations to Penny Fuller for Sativa — it’s a first win for Penny — a hymn to the “secret, unbounded/freedoms” of fresh peas in the pod. The narrative voice of the poem doesn’t really want to be outside, but finds joy in the green things of the earth; this is a lovely work of resilience.
