Mind if I share?

Night Siren

I too have taken up writing poetry again not by choice, by need. I need to get these thoughts out of my head! Here are a few that were written last night:


Untitled(as yet)

Spirits tend to knock down walls
revealing hidden treasures
fragments are unmasked
to eyes that should be blind
shock and disbelief
do not often lend themselves
to pleasant company
exposure to the elements
is not always wise
fear is not the essence of
the fretful thoughts
it's the knowledge
that has been shared
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Into the Depths

In and out and up and down
my world goes round and round
never a pause to catch my breath
tumbling, tumbling down
into the depths where I would rather not go
climbing and screaming and feeling enclosed
fretting and yearning and wondering aloud
will it always be like this
peace seems to allude me
I want to close me eyes
and bid farewell to this day


Mind if I share 2?

'To Know'
To know a source of love divine.
To know this love cannot be mine,

To know as I wake, every day.
This love can only run one way.

To know that thre can never be,
within her heart, true love for me.

To know, of this, and more, and so,
Please tell me why I have to know?
