Daily Prompt: Enough is Enough
~*~
~*~
Insatiable.
You are.
Not to be satisfied
at any time,
by any means,
because the soul lost
knows not
when enough is enough.
Searching for what
never can be
for you know not
that for which you seek.
And I,
your convenient and
invisible slave,
drown in your endless
need at any expense,
at my expense.
And wonder when,
perchance,
I might surface
once more
to catch my breath,
and recover
at all cost,
my own soul lost
to the
insatiable.

An old personal battle that very occasionally pops up for a skirmish.
Still, enough is enough …

that was a breathless, powerful poem – love the form you used as well, that enhanced the flow beautifully. Great job!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it … 😊 … Thanks for stopping by.
I know the feeling! Old wounds can surface but now I have the words to turn them into something meaningful and beautiful. I love the image as well.
Liberating, isn’t it? 🙂
Exactly!
