This really captures that restless, circular feeling so honestly. The way you move between trying to push on and just needing to sit for a moment feels very real. Lines like the bitter coffee and the spinning mind landed hard for me. I appreciate that it doesn’t pretend things are resolved, just that you’re still here, still breathing, still looking ahead even when it’s messy. That quiet persistence matters. Thanks for sharing this.
I’m really glad it resonated with you. It’s definitely been a strange (and most often hard) place to write from but I’m trying. I think that’s the trick: no matter how dark things are, keep trying to find the light.
Loved this, you used the word 'spinning' I see these episodes of meaningless as cycles we all go through, an inevitable part of life, you captured it well, nicely done, thanks for sharing your words.
Lintara, your words always make me feel seen and, even rarer, understood. Thanks so much for the time and heart you always bring to anything you regard. You are truly gifted🫶🏻✨
Thank you so much for your kindness and care. It’s been a difficult time but I finally feel like I’m making some progress in navigating it. Wishing you a fruitful and happy New Year, my friend🫶🏻✨🎉

Thanks, Lee! I really appreciate your kind words. As much as I learn, I still find life experience to be the greatest tool in my arsenal.

This reads like staying upright without pretending the ground is stable.
Not collapse, not resolution — just breath held long enough to remain present.
What matters here is the refusal to perform hope while still refusing disappearance.
That tension is honest. And it holds.
Thank you for leaving it unpolished.

That’s a tender, truthful and wounded poem Liora, and evocatively grounded in the senses (I loved the coffee line).
I wish you all the best and hope things get easier. If you’re thinking about your writing or your poetry, rest assured the beauty still remains.
