This poem, Vital, seems to find the most important aspects of living to be both difficult and simplistic depending on the amount of importance assigned.

Comment from Julie Helms
Great use of metaphors throughout. The longing in the first stanza of the emptied out soul is palpable.
I really liked this line:
Aching for one effervescent light that drowns my heartache, like no other pinprick of a star.
You have a very creative ability in your use and combination of words to strike a mood or feeling.
Thanks for sharing! Julie

You have a delicious use of words here. I like how you mention baseball which seems to fit nicely in your words. "With emptied out soul" is another perfect poetic line that impacts your poem. Feelings and emotions come forth from your words. Excellent free verse form.
