Like a star and unknown sphere

We both whirled in our worlds

Enchanting- to each others view

Drawing closer in our universe

Nature took lead of our hearts

And like children, we followed

Time continued to ticktock

As I- blindly became seduced

Within an eclipse of thoughts

Your gravitation pull; alluring

Our seductive dance, addicting

I convinced myself, it was love

And resigned, to gift all I was

But then came the darkest of times

Where I was tidally locked to you

All I was, became exhausted, dust

I barely subsisted inside lost chaos

As you- calmly overshadowed- us

I’m now another vanquished planet

You left behind while passing through

Who knew, your light was…truly dark?

I’m a deep visualizing poet creating particular facets, not only line by line, but even the shades and innuendo's between them; to the point that, I can get so comfortably caught up in my imaginations first imperfect draft that I sometimes just move in to stay there… rhetorical, spelling, grammar, mechanics be damn, nothing in life is that perfect. I don’t need tailor made, I need someone/something to fit well enough that it becomes fashionable for me to wear well. I don’t need to pretend to know everything and I resist pontificating those things I’m well versed in. I'm just a simple romantic at heart waiting on a perfect storm to completely sweep over me like a gentle fresh dawn. In the meantime, I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone a friend, until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with other like minds artist, writers. Thank you for reading, commenting and your visit. I appreciate all the feedback (good or bad) you care to offer. Feel free to reach out by email for private exchanges if you wish. View all posts by Poet of the Light
