PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

anguished is the return

so labored in its lament

following a mirage of magic filled thoughts

to a misplaced reality

such fantastic endeavors I have spent

creative self truth be ever so aware

of your fading genius subtlety

for she awaits in the looming shadows

of an irked recluse

quietly prepared to pounce on thee

ready is the receiver so prepared

to intercept any even slight negative foe

vowing to keep all in line

while weaving the very intricate tapestry

we poets like to code as 'The Flow'

words can equal many forms of wisdom

if composed by an uncompromising hand

much valued soul goes into the process

the otherworldliness of the venture

transforms ordinary ideas into paged pieces

of the visually grand

until the never before shared visions

surrender their softest secrets

and make yet another tiny speck of beauty

out of the nothingness of night

and all their glorious splendor gets

snatched right up by a world so hungry

that they each become lifted to an

unprecedented height

to live out every splendid season to come

captured within the fond memories of all

lovers alike

even if to be eventually forgotten by some

still in the end they can say

they did their job well and now all is indeed

quite thoroughly done

so to the next level of wisdom's peace

they magically alight to prevail............
