Sometimes People Glow by mindgallery

So many people so heavily
invested in the
world

& the thing is i learned
this a long time
ago

it’s all a shit show but
sometimes people
glow

and save us from
the under
tow

This mindgallery poem first appeared a few years ago on the Brooklyn Missed Connections but it easily could have been written recently. Heartbreak and sadness seem to have no time limit in this world. Fortunately, the same applies to those who glow.
