If you steal my poetry...I will find you in between the metaphoric lines. I will smudge you with inky darkness and do unwritable things never whispered of. In full disclosure, I am absurdly mad and take no responsibility for my actions if crossed. But, otherwise, I’m a deep visualizing poet creating particular facets, not only line by line but even the shades and innuendo 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 gentle fresh dawn. In the meantime, I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone as a friend until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with others, like-minded artists, or 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.

All we need are the loving arms of love, to live, breathe. And to never be let go of. ❤️❤️❤️

I’m wary of self-fulfilling prophesies. I think it’s important to believe that the best in our lives could still be before us.

Ok, And? Perhaps, you’re reading more into the lines than is written, my friend? I agree, we should remain optimistic in our lives at all times.
The poem is about someone questioning themself, about if they have simple become too complacent with the void in their life, to recognize and fall in love all over again.

ok… I was left feeling like that someone concluded that (s)he was unlikely to fall in love again… that made me feel sad, and my reaction was, “No, no! You should believe in your potential for happiness!”

And, I could see how you got that. And I agree in maintaining the belief that falling in love is always a potential aspect of life, around one of the next bends…

Love this.
I believe there can be moments and chapters in life where people stay closed off – even unknowingly, however the warmth of love is out there – it’ll bring the light to dark and heat up the cold. Keep your eyes open but don’t look to far ahead to find it – as no matter what or how long it takes – it will find you. x
