Poetic Form 39: Triolet

These Days


These days of living bruise my soul.
Lost in the maze of uncertainty,
following the path to a broken north pole.
These days of living bruise my soul.
Another paper line used for damage control,
tears and blood blurring the line mournfully.
These days of living bruise my soul.
Lost in the maze of uncertainty.
