No Word Comes Near Enough
The English language has its limits. I learned this when I became a student of the Bible and looked up the Greek and Hebrew definitions behind the Scriptures I loved. Some languages have so much more depth and power than the one I use to convey my thoughts. But, even so, I don't think any word could ever come close to describing this void and pain I am journeying through. I don't know how to swim through its murky waters.

Winterthorne
Winterthorne stood alone at the edge of the park. The beautiful snow that had surrounded him was all trampled now, from the feet of all of the children who had built him. He missed the sparkly clean snow blanket, but he was happy that so many children had come out to make him.

Well done, D.J. Can be applied in so many instances
Tell them DJ!!!
Whoaaa, that was powerful! Loved your Senryu!
Tragically insightful...it is so easy for heartfelt conviction to descend into a need for control.
As long as humans are humans, this will never not be true
All I can say is: WOW!!
Loved this. Such words were true during the Middle Ages and hold true to this very day. Profound meaning in so few words - excellent.
Yes. Very relatable tbh.
I might look into this.
