I have been listening to this every night this week. It is the validating voice I need.
Your poetry really speaks to me. Thank you!
I love how this poem resonates with so many parts of me and how I'm sure everyone can relate to at least one of those beautiful lines.
this is so beautiful
It's so beautiful to see you still do that! I just found old pictures of the poetry slam in Dezember 2011 in Erlangen, Germany. Do you remember? For me it was quite a flashback! Ten years ago now. Wow! And you still do poetry and I still do music. Isn't that marvellous! Warm greetings from Leipzig, Germany. Paula

"It's all very necessary, but it's a lot. To say 'I've been good' as a mannerism. To say 'I haven't' as a fact. It's a lot..." - Jon Sands
Beautiful brutal yes!
I’m pretty sure I’ve watched this five times so far since it was posted yesterday and it just keeps getting better
