Endeavour to Persevere - (Lone Watie) The Outlaw Josey Wales

Today is one of those days you wish you could stay under the duvet. But Endeavour to Persevere I do. I am very grateful for my lovely husband who woke me with coffee.

Once again ~ Pain seeps in ~ Energy drained ~ Static brain ~ Sluggish body.

Emotion ~ fires creation ~ tearing pain ~ releasing memory ~ stirring the dragon within.

And a new longer poem.

Rejected

I felt for the the child,

Who was resented,

From the very beginning.

I saw the confusion,

In her eyes,

At her DNA entrapment.

I caught the scent of conflict,

When she looked,

In your scornful eyes.

I tasted the fear,

That crushed her,

As you laughed aloud.

I heard her cry,

Asking why,

You never gave an answer.

Maybe it will be added too, but best get on for now.. :)
