For You As Always

Contributed by jyssvw22 on Friday, 19th January 2007 @ 03:44:01 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

Run, don’t walk
Into my arms

Feel, don’t touch
The love is lost

Think, not hard
Of the moment

Give, don’t take
And you will own it

Succumb, don’t fight
If you taste the sweetness

Awake tonight
Prey on my weakness

Support, don’t let go
And you become statuesque

Alone, no more
A prince has found his princess
_______________
_____________

Embedded in these dilemmas are answers
I get asked lots of question to which I have no reply
So I do, as you, or anyone else would, and I straight out lie

The curtains come crashing
The stage still filled with actors and props
A rope has been snapped
Beams have collapsed
Fixtures of light
Aimed at the dark

Trepidation feeds this anxious body of knowledge
In uneasey nights the trees freeze branches of olives
A peach offering
Barely acknowledged
The white dove
Hovering
The vultures are absolved
I am encouraged

Carry closely your prized possessions
A pick pocketer
Never
Learns his lesson
A calculator
Confirms the addition
Of two extra
Inches of intimidation
Bigger, badder, beyond any expectation
____________

Jyss .. I love the way you laid this out.

The mix-up of emotion .. in dealing with human and
seriously scary moments of our naked selves it is
wise to remember that change is inevitable .. and usually
welcome. When things are bleak, change is desperately
welcome, and when things are euphoric, change helps
to keep from losing that which we crave ..

.. though, none of us have the answers ~
(What was the question again? lol)

Awesome post, my friend. Entirely provocative . .

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. Â©
