Whispers From Within

Caught in a web of screams
    I dreamt a dream of many dreams
tears of realistic fears  ~ repetitive for many years
  I end up stranded in the here and now
as I swallow my fury,
  I face a labyrinth of thousands
who question the purpose ...

  Like a reflection in a mirror, I see YOU
          clearly ...
I extend my hand and like yesterday's
    memory, we tightly embrace.

Intimately we unite for the moment,
  our souls woven together and in this moment
I wasn't lost ...

  Whispers from within showed me
and allowed me to be free.

  I breathed a breath of yours,
violating all reason, primitive promises
  excused...

...  leaving me wanting, needing ...

showing me life again, filled with HOPE

    curiously, I ache for more.

Caught in a web of lustful screams,
    I dreamt a dream of many dreams.
Tears of longing and bent knees of prayer
    opening my heart up for tons of hope
without your spirit, I couldn't cope.

    I really like the rhythm in this... excellent job (thought I'd take a gander at your work since you've kindly commented on some of mine)

  • I truly enjoyed this write, it is so amazingly penned, that I dont really have any words. You have great talent....

    Keep your pen flowing with ink that never fade

  • This is interesting. A mix of freeverse and rhyme. The subject matter is deep and powerful. Seems like a transitional poem, "as I go from here to there..." Bravo.

    • It is a transitional piece, thank you. I was transitioning when I wrote it -- haha ---

      Nice to have your stamp on my page here,

    I really missed your poetry! This is truly beautiful and filled with emotion. I think what makes this poem so powerful is the way you pen the echoes so easily,.like; “dream of many dreams” and “breathed a breath”. Wonderful work

    Love,
    Amera

    • Awww ---

      You know why I came back -- wasn't to publish my poetry -- but to be surrounded by those who made me strong @ my weakest moments. The Sisters of Ap --- the best friends life could offer --- the warriors who guide us to the victory line! Amera darlin', you're one who may not be in my life, but in virtual life, you've managed to make a difference in my real life... if that makes sense. lol

      Didn't mean to get mushy -- but damn it -- if we didn't want mushy some of the time we souldn't be on a freakin' poetry site. RIGHT? lol

      Thanks for coming and reading my work. Glad you enjoyed it.
      Love,
      Kristin
