Today

Today by JL Denman

Today
today I wanted
but this way was never the right way
Today I needed
more, more than anything ever in life before
today I designed
created pieces, snapped them for no reason
today
today I lived
less, dully, darkly, in a funk for hours on end
today
today I freaked
screamed, cried, coughed up blood until it hurt
today
today I wished
but...
nothing came true

  2. Amazingly enough I was going to go for something sunny and peaceful. I guess the Drearies decided it wanted to rear its head instead.

  3. Lola, this is so amazing and yet such a sad poem. Your writing is excellent! I'm sorry I've been away from the jewelry - getting settled into the new 'job'. I visited your new jewelry too and it's beautiful! I love the new lemon yellow!
    Hugs and love my friend, I hope you're doing well. :)
