Plumb Line

If someone hung a plumb line up
against your heart, the string would veer off
to one side, the difficulties and the pain,
frustrations of the daily grind, the self-absorbed
and selfish, draining people all around you,
grief and loneliness you bear so well but
must admit the hurt is real and only just below
the surface at all times. It's only human to seek 
pleasure to regain your balance deep within,
offset the negative with bliss. I hope you find
this pleasure soon, but if you need help looking,
let me know, my friend. I have a few ideas.
