Mortality, Sequestered
To live, to be human, is to be hurt. Life is a cruel torture and a wonderful gift, and it is upon both that I muse. I have sought to sequester the heart rendering pains and indescribable pleasures of mortality into poetic contemplation. The whole of human joy and suffering can be discovered existing within the emotion which fuels the word and verse contained herein. This has nothing to do with mind, this is my soul communicating with your soul.
