See below for this months' Roomers contribution
Each month, we will share a piece written by our Roomers participants for you to read through and ponder at your own leisure.
Love and Hate
How quickly our fickle hearts
Turn sublime love and passion
Into hate and vitriolic eyes shaded
Love and hate into equal measures
Words of love and kindness lost
Passion rises like tides in the summer
Then recedes just as quickly into contempt
Ego’s shattered erosion of tenderness
The mind and heart despising and contracting
Small acts of fondness and quirkiness
Become tiresome and vexing to love
Slowly time erodes our passion, and we hate
Floods in our hearts mixed in mud
We look at the whirlpool of thoughts
Looking through the murky water
Then remember the clear stream of love
K.A.Newman
