I'm the title i cant think of

I'm the stone that won't skip,
The bud that can't bloom,
The caterpillar trapped,
In an inescapable cocoon,

The puzzle piece that can't fit,
The fire that won't burn,
Mistake after mistake,
Lessons I'm unable to learn,

The seed that won't grow,
The bird that can't fly,
The wound that can't heal,
The pain that won't die,

The clock that can't move,
The future that won't wait,
The past that won't rest,
Time that will not abate,

The candle that can't light,
The shadow that won't rest,
A soul filled with chaos,
and words unexpressed,

In missed beats i find rhythm,
In shattered dreams, a new start,
Though broken, I'm no victim,
For in my scars, I find my heart,

For it's in these struggles of life,
are our character's defined,
In the darkest of moments,
Our truest selves are outlined,

I may be the stone that sinks,
The bud that stays closed,
But within this cage,
this poem composed,

In these lines, a story told,
Imperfections and flaws, underlined and bold,
For within this mess, a tale of hope,
of a love's resilience and its strength to cope.

It may or may not be a curse of some sort.. is there some wrong in the past that needs to be made right?

@YoMomma none that i can think of. (not in this lifetime anyway, not that i can recall others but when pondering curses i attempted to check off all avenues )

@lovingdead could be something your ancestors did? Assuming it was a curse..
lovingdead · 31-35, M
@YoMomma no clue, I've never heard of any giant horror stories from my family tree, plus im not an only child. so thusly wouldn't it effect everyone on the tree?

@lovingdead idk its not like people talk about such things eh? Lol
lovingdead · 31-35, M
@YoMomma correct, so i just kind of amble around in the ambiguity of not knowing. if i am cursed for some past thing of mine or someone else's....i just try to be good human

@lovingdead its just a speculation 😅
lovingdead · 31-35, M
@YoMomma yup, keeps my balanced. drifting between yes and no as far as cursed, so its easy to keep in my mind that bad stuff will always just pop up (as it does in life) and also just as much as it pops up it can go away/heal.

@lovingdead perhaps 😊
