Fragments

[Cursive]

of myself.

First time?

1

I
am an empty shell,
impermeable
to the bittersweet
happiness in which I am submerged.

2

Constantly, Disappointment struggles
for release from its captivity.
So skilled at escape
is my life partner.

Interesting concept, and the imagery is strong. I like how its captured, but how it is also able to escape.

Is this your first poem?

[Cursive]

Yes, it is/they are. They're not meant to be connected in any way.
I don't write often at all, because when I write it's to express myself, and what's to express when I'm grabbing at things in myself that may not even be there? I let them surface of their own accord, so you may not be seeing a whole lot from me around here, or anything very long for that matter, I'd think.
Thanks for the comments. :)

Oh, my bad.

Hehe, well if it allows you to express yourself, as little or as much times in this section, then so be it. Thanks for sharing though :)
