well beaten conversations

Brick by brick 

we rebuild 

over smoldering ashes 

of toxicity 

and

Carcasses of well beaten conversations 

"we will make it better 

taller 

stronger" 

you say with a proud wolfish smile. 

I nod ad follow along. 

But can anything grow 

from the embered remains? 

Or am i the sheep about to be sacrificed 

up to the God of your complaint need?

Phoenix from the ashes grew, anew.I love the line"carcasses of well beaten conversations" !!! you have a way with words and I think they like it!! I know I do! :0

Very glad I read this ! Your way with words and line breaks is very good... I liked the line "we will make it better
taller
stronger" .
Also liked the way you ended it with a question mark. Leaves suspense and gives the reader something to think about.

Interesting piece Crystal, I take from this as the relationship is being worked on by both of you but you have your doubts. All you can do is try and it will either succeed or fail. Than the question becomes , do you try again, Nicely done.

Thank You Robert, yeah its a friendship that i thought was over, but she wants to give it another go. and i am left trying to determine if its the best course of action. Thanks for the advice and review

Love this Crystal!! Sounds to me like someone in a relationship they'd rather leave, but get persuaded to remain in. Perfectly described! Yes, I've been there, would not wish to return. :oI

Thank you. Its kinda a squeal to my earlier poem Good bye. Still haven't quite wrapped my heart around the problem.
