A Termite Mound
Now I no longer follow scents I left behind—
Foraging, building a new mound unhurried
Yet every tunnel still asks the mind
A question the earth has quietly buried.

Hey Determined Sea! 🌊
It’s so lovely to see you after a while.... I hope life’s been treating you gently and generously. Thank you for your wonderful comment — it truly means a lot, especially coming from someone whose words I’ve always admired. Hope you’re writing, dreaming and being determined like the sea you are.

I haven't been doing well, but I appreciate the well wishes! Thank you. I've been wrestling with myself to get back into creative work, so wish me luck on that.
@determinedSea4370 I’m really sorry to hear things have been tough lately. Be gentle with yourself — creativity doesn’t always come easy when you’re not feeling your best especially when the thoughts are louder than your words. I remember you once told me that writing helped you, and you used to post so much back then. I hope you’re able to tap into that again, to channel what you’re feeling and find some catharsis through it. Wishing you all the luck (and peace) as you find your way back. Rooting for you always. 🌱

I went ahead and wrote 3 poems the other day, so thank you, maybe I'm getting back on track.

A question the earth has quietly buried, such a short but captivating sentence, we try so much to bury our feelings, our trauma, our experiences and we hide behind masks, smiles, afraid to speak out, or be ourselves, the world says it cares until it's not in line with their thinking or it becomes too uncomfortable. That is why it's great to be here with people who just get it 💜🥰
@Amanda84 Thank you so much for your insight, Amanda. And yes, I am grateful for people like you, in 7cups who gets it <3
