“greetings – may i give U a hug”

💝 💝

greetings to U my friend

i noticed in U, some of the same pain that I have

i see distress in your face even though you are smiling

noticing your posture so heavy and weary

💝💝

so I ask, are you o.k.

in my heart, knowing that there is a heaviness

an anguish not easily shaken

when at times it has seemingly gone away

but something triggered a memory

and in you it has become a strain

💝 💝

a strain for putting it back away

what is done needs to be forgotten

that’s what everyone shoved down your throat

because your pain was too deep for their already sinking boat

💝 💝

but not to put a halt to what you go through

it must be a mindset that you can be willing to say, so what if that…
