This is my Reason

Folder: 
Soul mates

Ahhh, the sun is tucked away,
Hiding so that it may pounce
upon the moon when
she seductively passes;
hinting of moods to come.
News of their antics
are brought by the winds
And the cool fresh breeze
deftly strokes my face
Inviting me to breathe in deeply
And draw in the cleansing air.
I look to the beaming brightest star;
And I think of my poetry
Lines in verses;
Verses in stanzas;
swapping lines weaving imagery
in the filigree of intricately placing
these haphazardly chosen words,
into emotive candles in the wind.
A Signalling of what I am; of life and soul.
There are no whispers in my poetry,
they are my words for me.
Sometimes they are elusive and
play endless tip-chasey like
The sun chasing moon's shadow
Moon chasing the sun's light.
And like some small sliver of the moon,
these words are all I have
in lieu, of warm arms and gentle caresses
here with my pleasant company
for a while in a stolen moment.
Perhaps as some small recompense
I offer these to you, as if it is all I have
Never partaking of this impossible love.
Happy just to look upon eachother
And enjoy the company alone it brings
us thus you and I and my why.

LOVED IT !!!!

Love the part that says " Thier are no whispers in my poetry their are my words for me" .
Some may read and be able to place their selves in others writes , I can do it on a bunch of others post also .But how can it be about others when you are not walking in their shoes . My writes, my life, my world.. You may be able to get a feeling that the poem is written about you ,but we alll go through similarties of trials and tribulations , we may agree that we have the same issues , feelings , etc.But what we write are the words we feel and for our healing process or to get a better perspective on what we are feeling for those moments...


you laugh at me because I am differant, I laugh at you because You are all the same ...(KoRn) J.D......
