A Poem by Penslinger
"

self absorbed observation

"

As far as I go

And as hard as I push

I will never reach the edge

The closer I get to the horizon

The more it looks like what I left behind

All my friends are here with me

Looking back from the mirror

Definitely a low point. I do know the feeling of seeing others getting ahead and me treading water. I like the poem's language which seems to convey a resignation with how things have become. I guess if you can she them up ahead of you there is still hope. It was a sad but enjoyable and poignant read.

i really like this. I read it to be them passing on and you left behind. Or.. just you fighting the daily struggle only to find no progress.. like an invisible wall holding you where you are.. . . wow.. that is exactly how i feel today.. trapped where i am and no way out.. write on.. i enjoyed reading!
