She's like the wind

by TJ Arizona Eagle   Oct 31, 2011


A pearl moon shines high in
the indigo sky, slowly giving way
as clouds blind it's sight.

Thunder disperses the calm
waking chaos to scathe
the unexpected, as lightning
cleaves the night.

Torrent winds tease my skin
with sensual promising
Blowing open the locked doors
of my heart.

Emotions are freed to scatter without
license, like leaves in the fall. Caught
up in a whirlwind then rest quietly
on the ground turning to brittle remains.

Damage absolute she moves on,
leaving behind ruins of passion
broken branches of forever. Hunger
fed, leaving behind an empty vessel.
---------"she's like the wind"

    I love this song... but your poem definitely gives that song a different light in my eyes that I can really interpret the song differently after reading this. Which is actually something I thought I'd never do.

    Great poem, very sad but it's the realities of many people. Love offers a summer breeze, but it more like torrent winds when it leaves. Well written I enjoy reading this piece.

    Wow this poem is so descriptive, I could picture your words which I think is amazing. The words themselves painted a bitter sweet picture that I loved! I intend to read more of your work. Thank you so much for sharing!
