Doesn't anyone think poetically anymore?
Edited on Tue Apr-06-04 08:31 PM by listenup
I slowly and quietly
open my eyes
and look around
inside this room
and I follow
the stealthy shadows
that followed other shadows
all through the night
from the light of the moon
while my eyes were looking elsewhere
when my dream filled eyes
hugged the darkness again
and then
I awake
too soon?
I look around
and hear the sound
that my heart makes
when it knows
the sun is chasing
the shadows
I rise and think
I'll make this new day
much better
Today I
will follow the sun.


read, reply, ignore, retry?

have a turn at the wheel of poetry....................

1. Reply?
I sigh and turn to other things
that grab my attention
what insight brings.

and takes away.

2. a little something between exes
watching lovers on screen
kissing in a kissing scene

instant butterflies...
thoughts of you arise

intense passion comes and goes
in between, pain ebbs and flows

one clear memory stays frozen in time:
ice cold pepsi, from your mouth to mine.

i slowly
and quietly
abuse the
enter key
alas and alack,
woe is me
oh yeah oh yeah baby
i was searching for you
long and hard now my search is through
and you will forever rue
that fatal night
when we writhed
in the light
the hellish light
of the city
at night
