One Woman’s Thoughts – part 2

One Woman’s Thoughts

By Susan Morgaine

 #2

Don’t have emotions

Don’t have feelings

Don’t have pain —

If you do, hide them away

Hide yourself away

Don’t expect sympathy

Don’t expect understanding

Don’t expect compassion

For there is none to be had

in the land of the sad

    Sharon Smith The Trees said, “Avalon will rise again.” A spark flashed in my soul. Small flecks of heat.
