Today i fell

Today I fell
The gravel worked its way under my skin
New black marbles under my flesh
Leaving bloody handprints on the ground
Heaving myself up
And I walked on
I fell again the next day
The cement pushed past my finger tips
And ripped away my fingerprints
A reminder for next time
Lifting myself up
And I walked on
Funny how we never learn after the first fall
We make the same mistakes
Day in and day out
In circles we tread
Working our way underground
And I walked on

appealing thoughts dear poet.....I sometimes feel the same way as you....repetition is all there is in this life.....
you conveyed your thoughts very well...and I loved the way you used imagery to describe your 'falling' in the walk of life......great to read.
May you continue to rise up! |
