ME
Do you wonder why I write in the dark?
Because I use the word "hollow"..
You must live in the darkness, they say..
Because I use the quote, "The world is tiresome,and shallow"..
Do you have any expressions to give us hope? They ask..
Because my pen spews out what is too real..
Do you have any love for life? They ask..
Because I display what so many secretly feel..
Well.. Here is my reply..
I can sing praises to the wings of nature all day long..
I can paint beauty in lyrics of blissful song..
I can bring a breathing image to surface with black ink..
I can create a world of longing peace to the brink..
I can speak of mystic angels, an Eden so new,
but I'd rather grasp reality, and to myself be true..
I can still smile,in life, yet preach of lonely death..
I can still feel love, yet tell tales of souls that no longer mesh..
I can still know comfort, yet claim my pain as I know it..
It's called, seeing you in a different view..
It's called being a Poet!
~To those of you who speak the truth, darkest to the core.. Much love~
