A Road Well Traveled

  Once in a while it happens,

 like falling snow at night

 collapses colors to their source,

 sadness envelops me.

 

 Thoughts travel their circular path...

 well trodden and muddy,

 descending, inevitably,

 into ignominy and shame.

Sad and thoughtful. Don't we all do that to ourselves time and time again? Poetry heals. Keep on writing. http://journals.aol.com/dcmeyer420/DearDiary/

Oh these kinds of moments are so paralyzing. Hang in there. You described it so well....the perception of a true writer.
