Become The Words

Topic:
anguished
|
I am wishing, hoping....
almost
too the point of the most intensive
yearning...
(stomach turned inside out)
to crawl deep inside
to get lost within
(but never forgotten)
These Words
to get lost
within
each
vowel,
consonant,
each digraphic word.....
(escapism)
to have me
Become The Words
Magically
Artistically
to flow
to paper
(fluidity)
To Become The Words
to take my pain
my fears
so far away
from here
To Become The Words
that cannot
be spoken
Not even on the deafest ears
To Become The Words
of terror
injustice
love
peace
in this gnarled old life
I've lived forever
in
all
these
words.
April, 2006
Laura Horner

omigoodness... boy, does this make sense to me! I think I know this sort of 'moment' (I've tried to capture it myself along the way). There is... well... there is much in a moment like that and it can feel, I think, near impossible to capture it all. It's a bit like trying to lasso the sky in the middle of a terrific storm. Ah, but you did well here!!! This speaks to me so clearly and it, yes!, does communicate the moment.
I really like this, Laura... I found an echo of myself in the middle of it, you know? And hon? The moment will pass. In the interim, close you eyes and take a deep breath whenever you need to - and - keep doing this. : )

It's been a while laura, but i'm not dissapointed. This indeed has a really melancholic, blank feel about it, something that is reinforced by the style in which it is written. Can't wait for more,

I love the imagery of crawling into your own words and the escapism sounds like a great trip.
If I could crawl into words to take my anguish away i'd be one of those great stories in a..err porno mag!
Seriously great work Doris, and I don't say it lightly when I say...
I can relate to this piece.

I love what Jen said, and I have to agree, you are one of the poets that make this site worthwhile, Laura.
*hugs you tight, tight, tight*
I love this, I can relate to it too, you know. I think has something to do with us being poets ;)
Wonderful write, my friend. I just wish it wasn't so sad.
Stay strong, hun.

Ah Laura,
You are very good with words, and very descriptive words that seem to denote a lot of pain and agony. Yet interspersed are more positive words woven in very creatively. Yet, I think our soul would seek a manner of expression that would transcend word; and that's where reading between the lines comes in, the subliminal message. A message of a tender loving soul and acceptance.
Peace Laura, well done
Will |

You, yourself have caught a moment here that many a poet strives to attain, to become the words, the poem, the moment.
Bravo!! |

BRAVO~!BRAVO!BRAVO! Laura, what a masterpiece you have created here, and to have the talent to make your reader feel what you were feeling...........Superb!!! Just Superb!!! I felt like the words, the vowels and ink from your pen flowing onto the paper....Your uniqueness and originality is marvelous!
Enjoy all of your work, but this was wonderfully written, and hit the mark!
Reminded me of "I Am Music!" Remember that one?

I know how you feel but that is why we write to escape and challenge ourselves to perservere. |

Your shelter is between the lines of the heart in this one, screaming in turmoil from the depths of your soul, a curious feeling one gets from this write. A fine peice of work indeed, says alot between the lines.

Laura; this is hands-down my absolute favourite write by you!!! There is a beautiful sorrow to this piece that makes it so incredibly moving, (and I have no doubt...) stirred every poets' heart; deep within, when they stumbled across this most impressive poem. Very well done!

very strong writing, and so demanding of a reader's
attention as to" Become the words" as you put it.
It's wonderfully written!

Laura, a powerful poem regarding the pain and remorse in your life. Even the way you structure the poem, in a liniar column adds to the narrowed focus of discontentness in your life. I've noticed other writes with a similar style. Perhaps that's a symbol for a focus on the pain in your life. It saddens me to see you struggle so, yet I admire and respect you so much for your courage and tenacity.
Bless you my friend

Oh My Laura this is so clever.........your format is intriquing indeed!
Wouldn't it been fun if we could do as you related here? Just to become the words and not have to live them.........how grand!
Lovely dear
Always enjoy your very creative work.
Warm love
