PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Tug and Pull

denial spreads molasses thick
across the probable reality
of each of my long days
seeping deep into every
open crevice
suffocating all dreams before
they even have the chance
to be dreamt

but beyond the constant
tug and pull
of life’s everyday demands
there just on the other side
of “another day put to rest”
hides that nook of time
where our moments are kept

and there in those
quiet expansions of space
when I am alone with my truths
denial diminishes into honesty
and I so easily get lost
within the simple of you and I
and all those dreams that
just cannot be restrained

taking me to that place
where rain brimmed days
spill lazily across
tomorrows horizon
breaking down emotional levies
where sanity silently lives
turning dusty inhales of breath
into dewdrop exhales
tempering sweltering desires
…no more

and my heart writes your name
in glistering red hues
across amour constructed clouds
just below that place
where you have written mine
revealing not just the hidden truths
but the passages, nay, the path
to bring those truths to light
renouncing all obstacles
in the name of a love
that can no longer be hindered
...or denied
