Its so much harder than you fucking think

ache and longing my words dissapear 

falling of thier string like pearls

rushing winds carry them away 

resting in someone elses heart 

seeping through their thoughts

into their hands and out to the world

oh how I want to join them 

spreading gorgeous drops of creation

 

love and spite,

weak and might

darkness and light

forgive and fight 

wrong and right

 

poetry slips from my soul

and where it ends up nobody knows

ache and longing in my bones 

my words dissapear and the hollow grows.

"the hollow grows"

Poems as pearls fall off string - letting the words fly free haphazzardly - to land on shores unknowable but welcome. Enjoyed the voyage, as always. - slc.
