Poem: Something Closer to Love
I grow my years in inches
In foot steps
And quiet meters
In foot steps
And quiet meters
I stroke my little life
In hopes that it'll turn over
And give me something closer to love

Post a Commentthis is lovely, I love your poetry ;)
Amazing. Reminds me of a T.S. Elliot piece. You say so much with so little.
Every line of this poem is powerful and thought-provoking. Marvelous!
"I grow my years in... ...quiet meters" awesome.
Feeeeel it!
A peek into your feelings, lovely!
A delicate poem. I like how it 'floats' quietly, peacefully, like the Holy Spirit over water.
