Nothing changes for me as I reside inside another shimmering night the day comes and goes and it takes me through it's practiced methods of surviving this life, but then evening saunters in with a swirl of her colored cape splashing the sky with golden pink light teasing the world with a dizzying breath of beauty just before night and here I reside inside a peaceful thought of you inside a luxurious tune. I take a breath and pick up my pen again I like my alone I like my longing I like my wandering I like hiding out in a book I do and I like this sheet of paper and the way it invites my heart to reveal every desire that I would never dare say with my two lips aloud. And here I am again at days end again residing alone inside of another shimmering night. Charity

Your words flow fiercely elegant. Loved reading the last four lines aloud over and over. I connected with this piece. You're able to go from dull "practiced methods" of survival to the brilliant essence of your dreams, your muse, your conscious. You capture the angst of living in a reality surrounded by seemingly unattainable fantasies. Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for sharing.
'Fiercely elegant' may be one of the most beautiful compliments I have ever gotten. I am guessing you just may be a writer too :). Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and feelings on this poem. It's encouragement like this that makes me glad as hell I finally got up the nerve to share my poetry with others!

This words are like a fine print b/w photograph, elegantly arranged, this arrange guides you surprisingly to a place where I found the exact tangible words I've been looking non consciously for well known feelings yet unknown due to the lack of the exact words for it. Thank you very much for sharing it. Leave a Reply. |
