Words as a source of misery

[Narayani]

She sobs under the blue sky

Loses her sense in the words she reads

Several fathomless thoughts hit the pages of her book

And burn the words she engraved herself in. 

Leaving her with a deeper and darker grave she calls her life.

Absolutely lovely, meaningful, and beautifully written and conceived.  You have managed in just a very few words to say so much and make us, the reader, feel so much.  Thank you for sharing.  I will definitely be featuring your poem in one of my poetladykatz Instagram posts next week.  You are a poet!  – Susan
