Then the moon grew weary of his path Paying no notice we layed awake talking our limbs comfortably intertwined Bodies bathed in waning silver light
Dreams and nightmares were uttered Brought forth into the world Shared by young lovers To this day I vividly recall
The walls you barraged fell Exposing the vulnerable child inside I wept pouring out my emotion That last time you held me
But now I lay in that bed The place you occupied is empty Thinking of those times we shared In isolation the walls fall again
Tonight my tears are not tinged with joy At finally being released to another This time my tears are hot Burning tracks down my face
I throw your picture at the wall As if shattering a frame could make you go away But your presence remains here A dark whisper, a familiar scent
I know you did not want to leave me But nothing changes that you are gone I am all alone yet again Weary of these memory laced nights

I've read some poems on here that are not, shall I say, intelligent. I've read some that are ridiculously pretentious. However, your writing is intelligent, but not pretentious. I see you are from Oregon, and indeed you write in an 'American' way. It's raw, it's pure, it lacks the bull (insert naughty word-ending here) that can be found in poetry like mine. It feels sincere to me, it feels honest. And that's a refreshing quality.

Deeply sad but deeply beautiful in its construction. I hope you have found your peace, but continue to write. This is well done. |
