Progress

by Anita Mac

There were days
when I danced with the rain.
Now it just kind of
seeps into my pores
and Drowns me from the inside.

Such a twist with your words here. Beautifully sad. Congratulations on your POTD.

Which only proves it is what is in us that makes the difference. And the realization is Progress....

Oh, I love this, and yes it sure does appear that there's more rain coming from my eyes that from the sky. Sometimes, though, a good cry is so cleansing - I feel refreshed afterwards and ready to start again. CONGRATULATIONS on POTD!

this is 'for her' - so I can't help but completely absorb it. Someday you can teach me brevity :)
