“Take Me Up” by Lauren Withrow
I am tied up to the thoughts
lifting me up towards a dreamscape-
yet I wish to break free
to return-
I cannot look up
for my home
is being consumed
by water
and
fire-

Great concept and nicely penned . . . 🙂
You hve captured my dilemma exactly. I am surrounded by beauty and everything in me wants to lift up – yet how can I, with all that is happening here on earth? So lovely to read you, always, my friend.
Oh, I so understand this. It’s hard to enjoy the beauty around me when I know so many are facing fire and flood.
Yes there is so much devastion in the world right now. Your poem is beautiful and true for me as well. Thank you for joining in Sumana. It is wonderful to see you here! 🌷
Cannot help, and cannot look away! So very true!
What a perfect rendering of the world, lately.
Timely, and harrowing.
