the handful of fallen blossoms
color reminiscent of seatide eyes
scent of memories against my lips
i allow myself this moment to feel Emotion
for the one who knows my greatest fear
though i may hide from
the most glorious smile (slightly askew)
i am not concealed from the one
who lurks behind the shattered mirror
and i wonder
if the slow and soft memories
of arms flung around me
drawing me near as i made to leave
are enough to halt the ensuing ice floe

Post a CommentHad to come back and read it again. Very nice work.
Beautiful piece as always
Stirs the heart of loneliness.
super
I wonder a similar thing.
Such poetic nature in this that assuages the humanity in us all. I can sense that there is a struggle but one that you are not succumbing to totally my friend. God bless and thank you for writing this. Such elegance yet pain co-exist together.
Nice job.
Beautiful.... :o)
