stay stuck in the past
or fawn for the future?
are pain relived
or attempts at relief?
serve as containers
for uncontainable things?
release weight
we need not hold?
are our souls scream
to be heard?
How many poems
capture the beauty
of being human
in equal measure
to the struggle?
I'd be a more honest poet
to do so.
