At times the soul gets clenched
in an unspeakable grief
In a demoniac grip, it chokes and wriggles
The pain of being stung by a dozen scorpions

The more it struggles to wade through the mess the deeper it plunges into the morass of despair Clung on talons of excruciating pain, wailing a long wail of never being understood the mind goes berserk....so touching and impressive. Beautiful poem so nicely executed.
If Darwin's theory of evolution is correct, we all are just like earth, green colorful and plesant. Inside us like that inside earth there is larva that erupts in a volcano. A thoughtful poem.
I love this deep, intense, dark and powerful write that spills of grief of the death of a relationship the heartache is brilliantly expressed!

BUT you really have used so many words which fit well to describe the AGONY the soul is going through. Of course, when I’m rejected in/by love, I just have another bowl of ice cream, a pizza (or two) , and start looking for someone with more sense (and/or cents) than the last woman had. The last four lines describes what happened after I came to your house and ate those chilis***. Yikes! ] Bri :) I HAD to look up ……………. ***Full Definition of chili plural chilies also chiles or chilis or chillies
Writing and reading poetry will clear the grief as it helps in moving time to bring the relief Thanks Valsa-10
Heart is the center for emotions. Human vents out emotions at times remarkably those stand for ever in the history. Whether JOY, AGONY, PLEASURE, ANGER anything and everything in its own way! And this work of yours is one of its kind dear Mam!
Yes at times it so feels and reasons may be many but our senses fail to recognise.....Valsa.....mind is so mysterious and so fleeting at times seen very happy and the next moment going very sad despite no reasons..... beautifully scripted with beautiful words.........great write
Blowing life with its violent breath. good thought. thanks. I invite you to read my poems and comment.
A poet enjoys the tumult between the woes inexplicable and a strong longing to have them for some time, next he / she wins leaving the very world around deserted! The shortest pains are the greatest pleasures and your final win has added one more feather to your cap of a life of enviable mould, madam.
Oh dear, I can feel a suffocating pain. It is said that there is no better healer than nature itself. When I have such hard moments I try to find the company of trees and wind, wild grass, the clouds, mountains or sea. Connecting with any of those brought a fresh gulp of air and energy to keep going through my unwanted jurney...I hope you too could find drops of solace.
Never have I ever simultaneously imagined the plight and read something as I had done now. Life is blend of rapture and grief, which is a testimony of the Yin-Yang philosophy. How'd we appreciate comfort had there never been pain? But bad times will pass, followed by God-given succour.
