An expression

by Dancing Rivers   May 9, 2016


An expression I have attempted to reveal
within the fires of my souls depths

Each night I cower in sweet melancholy
dreading the beautifully cold touch
of a world so entrancingly stifling

A world woven in dreams and fears
sown in fits of passionate delirium.

At last I nod off
my eyes fluttering in recognition
of my life journey, all the worn out cobble stones
of indecision and blissful decisiveness.

Each night I tremble
in sweet awe of existence.

Within the fires of my souls depths
an expression I beautifully portrayed.

    The way you decipher your feelings to paper just amazes. I can feel so much with your vivid descriptions. Nice peace, kept me in.

    It does Hazel. You are accomplished at free verse and rhyming poetry and sometimes you incorporate both in one piece....little scatterings of rhyme, if you will, lol

      Hehehe yeah you can generally tell when I'm concentrating hard on a poem by the constant rhyme, but when I'm just going with it it tends to be a tad erratic :D

    Hello Hazel
    You will have to excuse my comments at the moment as I am still awaiting my new laptop and I really struggle writing on this blasted tablet!
    What I will say however is that this, like all your work, is so rich in description and imagery. Your poetry has a very loud and unique voice: as I read, I never quite know where I m going to be taken next, which I love.
    Take care and stay well,

    Ben

      Hehe Hi Ben!

      As always, thanks for taking the time to read my works, it's truly appreciated, secondly, thank you for the lovely compliment, I never actually saw my poetry as having a voice never mind a loud and unique one, but what a great compliment, I am truly humbled.

      Take care brother.

      Blessed be
