Self Actualized through Your Eyes

Contributed by jyssvw on Friday, 17th November 2006 @ 01:50:50 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

The more I get to know you
The more I love you

The less tense we become
The less things will change

The silence will bring us home
The silence can make us dance

The rainbow placed as a crown
The rainbow sits in shallow earth

The kiss of a lifetime
The kiss that stung lips of gold

The moment of forever
The moments of clarity in lucid dots

The mentioning of your name
The mere mention of your name

The butterflies which rise from stomach pains
The butterflies which die in cocoons of cries

The enemy is within
The enemy is not without sin

The pleasure is brought from outside
The pleasure is deceptive

The anger is pent up
The anger is fed up

The malingering slacker dozes off
The malingering procrastinator folds his cloth

The shocking behavior is disturbingly soft
The shocking display is retched and raw

The air is sweet like grass
The air is meant to keep the lungs from collapse

The sky is blue and the sun is gray
The sky keeps the stars close and shields the heat

The energy is matter in space
The energy is mass of time kept encased

The moment of goodbye is sad in retrospect
The moment of goodbye has been hung by its neck

So much to love about this write! For starters; I like the way each stanza starts off with the same two words, and how one line is positive/optimistic, and the second line is the flipside; the negative/pessimism. Then you switch it up halfway through, almost like you're doing a he said/ she said, and then closer to the end it's more of a mesh of both...like two worlds, or minds if you will, coming together. Very creative and thought-provoking!!!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
