Eleven Words - One Poem: Elfchen

[Ronin]

Much
Needs dispersing
Sadness like mist
Instead of slowly dripping
Water

 

[Deleted member 28403]

Water
Just tears
On my cheeks
Pouring out of my
Eyes

 

[Deleted member 28403]

Eyes
With which
I read, slowly
Words of pain, that
Hurt

 

[Ronin]

Hurt
Needs soothing
Warmies, smoothies, oatmeal
Also fresh fruit filling
Stomach

 

[Deleted member 28403]

Stomach
Just hurts
The constant discomfort
Bad thoughts just won't
Go

 

[Ronin]

Go
Maybe try
Watching them as
If they were just
Reflections?

 

[digger]

Reflections
In mirrors
May be distorted
By ideas of beauty
Mislearned

 

[Lucycat]

Mislearned
Adult behaviour
While still little
leads to distorted mental
representations.

 

[digger]

Representations
Of facts
By separate witnesses
Made for very different
Stories

 

[goingonhope]

Stories
Catastrophic grief
Lodged and hidden
Behind: Time, Restrictions, Deadlines
Complications

 

[Deleted member 29920]

Complications
Chaotic cacophonies
Crumbling cascading crises
Crying calling crawling for
Care

 

[Kintsugi]

Care
Tenderly for
Tomato plants and
They will grant you
Deliciousness.
