The Grotto

I lovvvvve this poem. The way I understood it is that we cannot appreciate the good things in life without experiencing the bad things. What happens to use in life makes us who we are and it is all part of our destiny. I love this poem and the way you have written it. Brilliant!!!

The way I understood it is like from all the flaw experiences something good came out of it. So everything happens for a reason. Well done.

"I love to bottle up tears, In remembrance
of the dark days, for they have built me."

^^ I really enjoy and relate with that line. It's powerful in a sense; as if to say that you're even glad for your sorrows, because, you've broken through them and have come out a stronger person!
~~~

If I was never to fall, than I would have never known you,
for being a flawed diamond, your light reveals the truth.

^^ Now, I can see two possible meanings to this, both of which I find understandable!! But my better guess is that you've found enlightenment in your darkest times!! You've reached within and pulled out a strong poet, Finding insight (And liking what you've discovered) You discovered that you have a brilliant way with words. Poetry explains what we simply can't!
~~~

I journey to those sorrowful archives often
scratching and pealing away, one by one,
watching them make love to the breeze
which blows freely, for the window Is now open....

^^That stanza really says it; It comes to show that we can always find new ideas, even within old experiences! Now that your creative juices are flowing, you're not about to dry out! Ha ha.

Great poem!!
