I’ve lost the ability to dream it seems

As I fallout of sleep into the twilight

My body follows steps of its memory

I stumble into the fog of another room

Pretending to myself it changes things

Sit in my empty chair in a dark silence

Nearby a window full of the moonlight

Being captured by nothing but sheers

Self-awareness trying to recapture me

I’m surrounded by a ridiculous truth

I’m not depressed- but I’m not happy

It’s hellish to love who has forgotten you

And I’m missing a life that I used to live

Lost from people who made… the difference

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.
