it's sad we fell out after all those years and now you have gone feel strange unsettled about that wish things had turned out differently life is riddled with too many dark holes of despair
I have lost a few friends through the years. Saddening, and hard to understand. I resonate with your closing line, much as I strive to hang on to hope and gratitude.

ReplyDeleteWhat I like about this poem is its reality, Rall. All does not always have a cheery ending. Those dark holes of despair are real!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a distillation of sadness and regret - I wish you brighter days and love the way you have expressed how sadness feels - Jae
ReplyDeleteRegrets bring an overwhelming sadness. The expression "dark holes of despair" truly reveals the state.

This is a perfect description, Rall. 'riddled' makes me think of all the shootings in the world.
