The gift of strength ties her to her destiny

Folder: 
PHILOSOPHICAL SS

 

 

 

 

!

She has

a strength inside her

that seeps   out   too bright 

They falter to stand next to her

||

under her shadow 

||

||

\\//__


...

 

she has had pain 

they have held it  to her face

and

flung it at her again and again 

 

...

 

*

she 

will not 

falter;


*

but

when

the waves

of sorrow crash 

< upon her heart 3

salt pouring into her

tightly bound wounds

she wrenches herself

together, gracefully

retreats to slip

away 

 

and

agonisingly cry 

till her liquid baubles

of pain are crystal dry 

another layer of strength

crystallising her

in mind

 

...

 

yet

they only

see her strength

as a poison to overcome 

and her foot steps though sure,

are placed with such delicate care 

that no one has everthe courage

to follow her or dare Walk

on the high road to

redemption  


...

instead they stay stuck in thier own reflection of pride

Made up of excuses and lies.

...

 

*

**

she is a

being of

 light

*

and

strength 

despite her

humaness

*

and

frailties

they are gifts

and can not be

un bestowed

~ or ~

\                             / 

torn               her  

from

 

....

 

they can only create an ill-usion that satisfies themselves

In to a comfortable delusion on their road to perdition.

 

... 

 

*

In

her

strength

she will always

overcome, it was

written on her

*soul*

Too moochey lovely SS

Too moochey lovely SS. The picturised words in colours painted the feeling & message appropriately.The first stanza looked like rain to me... the blue colour of waves was lovely to behold...... "Writing on soul" in blood scarlet....... what an idea... Hats off... I bow to you SS & Rose for putting in more colour. Now PPoems has become a riot of colour....... Wonderful to see and of course read

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
