The anger can be traced away Through skin of lined and fading gray Where once my refuge was a heart Lost; forgotten in the dark Desire left in waning waves That washed away the better days My soul as wholley as my chest Has heaved its way deep into rest My eyes, awake with heavy lids Jump and dance when they meet his The window of my life's embrace Designed with love upon my face Show me where my dreams do hide Where chivalry destroys my pride Where nothing is just what it seems Inside my sleeping heart that beats A passion deep beneath my skin Where secretly I yearn for him Yet still I stand, back to the glass If only to omit the past Letting go of all my needs As he makes a bigger fool of me Once I'd danced within the rain Where none but God could tell my pain And every drop upon my flesh Drove the madness into rest Where dormantly, it waits inside Attempting to destroy my pride A weakness I had let embark Upon the trappings of my heart Surely just to watch me drown In the agony that breaks me down Bruised and scarred by my own pain Every time, he turns away Nothing helps to stop the rush Of raging heart and boiling blood Nothing helps to clean the stain That flows from me within the rain Transparent hopes and dreams to fade Until stormy nights burst into day Where then I smile to see the light That puts my furies back to flight Into the skies of cloudy seas Where again, I rest within my dreams And eyes shut tight, I see him smile Leaving butterflies like a child Again to frolic through the mud Towards the one I'll always love Left with fantasies and bliss That my soul devoutly miss Where nothing's ever what it seems Where I love him, and he loves me

You're very good at poetic expression. Some people think poetry is 'prose but with shorter lines.' Not really, as u demonstrate, a poem usually has some kind of 'musicality'. |

Hi,
Quite simply, an excellent piece of poetry with all
the emotions laid open and bare.
Well scripted.
