I am a sucker for poetry... and have been writing it for about 18 years now! Eww my stomach turned seeing that number down on print... ughhh OLDNESSS!!!
Anyway... today I am posting two of my more recent pieces. They are about 3 yrs old. I would like to preface it with the fact that the first, is one of my more simple pieces and shorter ones. It really illustrates for me, my ability to see the bigger picture at times...but also my inability to "let go" of things, also my overabundance of tears. The second is about my loyalty attributes, or you can flip it and look at it from the stand point of how I am lacking loyalty in my life. So with out further a-do, my debut poems.
Words I Never Even Whispered…………
Scattered, the marbles of my life, brightly colored, unique and wonderous. As I gather them I cry...so many to chose from, so many to say good bye to, so many that simply roll away. My Reds, My Greens My Blues. In my hand I hold them all! KF-07'
I Will Be There.....
When the door opens and there is nobody there, when the smoke clears and there is nothing left, when silence deafens......things seem hapless. The world swings tilted,
I will be there......
When the show is over, the ship has sailed or the marbles have rolled away.
I will be there.......
When relationship is relative and gravity bends......when understanding becomes beauty......and beauty becomes an alibi.
I will be there........
When our lives accelerate and combust.......our pieces melt, and when things need to be repaired.
I will be there.......
When the day rallies war.....and the dance is tiring......when the friendship is constant and words are amiss.
I will be there.......
In everything you do.....I will be there.....KF 0/7'
Thanks for sharing your poetry. Not enough people write it, not enough people read it, and it is totally undervalued in America today. But I, too, have been writing poetry for too many years to count, and I love when it is shared with the world. Spread the love! Also in "I Will Be There" I noticed that friendship is constant. Isn't that the truth?! Despite all the shit in life you have to suffer through alone, friends can be counted on to see you through it. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteSo true my dear... You and I are a prime example of that illustration.
