Andrew Stone“Pain is weakness leaving the body”
– Lieutenant General Lewis Burwell “Chesty” Puller
oh how my body aches
and how my mental faculties
are full of distraught,
agony and sufferingyet i hunger for more,
nothing seems to satisfy me
for as soon as i reach my peak
there’s another valley soon to followthis push and pull of forces
has me wondering about it all
is there something i am chasing,
maybe a mirror on the wall?regardless, i press onward
for the only way out of this world
is by facing what i dare not dream of
for even a whisper could wipe it awaythis pain is simply weakness
leaving the body ever so fluidly
and i welcome it as a friend
standing alone at summer’s endVoting is closed
This is wonderful Andrew! I especially love this line “yet i hunger for more,
nothing seems to satisfy me
for as soon as i reach my peak
there’s another valley soon to follow” . Another stunning piece of art from you. Thank you for sharing. 💜
