Submerge


Down here with the feelings
the cool shades of ultraviolet
I feel sunpressed
the heat rises up like sea kelp
all the bright debris dancing
in the surf
currents lull

the liquid hope of the surface
twisting like my thoughts

I wish I was up there
I wish you were down here

but its broken this heart
and like bones that
cant heal

I bury you in sacred
dreams
and waits for nights cool
appeal

how beautifulyour poetry

how beautiful your poetry unfurls... sometimes like a lazy cat stretching, and sometimes, as in this one, like a pair of gossamer wings your words carry the reader along with them a gentle journey of sad reflection, but also, with a sense of beauty, and maybe even hope... p

Sublime!

Again, you are a true poet! This is exactly the kind of poetry I love! If you ever publish a poetry book, you can be sure I am going to buy a copy or more. For some reason, your poem made me think of this song that is heartwrenching to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fASJuCtBgrw http://restlesslittlesoul.webs.com
