Poem Artwork


I don't have much to show for love
Quiet tracks and tracks of tears
The salty type that never leaves
The sort that stays for years
I've Xeroxed memories...programmed pains
With life's ill-fated turns
I've shook and trembled through dark hells
My hopes were torn and burned
I've tried real hard to disconnect
My mind from this torn heart
I've thrown myself into my work
Even split my soul in parts
Then tried to cry through dried tears
Each drop a hollow echo
The serenade of saddened years
The film in vibrant techno
Then life returned a few years back
I awoke without the weight
Great tonnage shifted from my heart
It made my body shake
Reality crept and wakened
The bitter side of me
Opened up my insight and made my spirit free
I have no clue... just why...just then
I knew the chains were gone
My focus set itself to shine
My tomorrows found a home
This woman who before was shaken
Now...was feeling strength
I moved with stealth on shards of pain
Stalking tears I had to wrench
I decided then and there
To let these old loves die
Just then my wings opened up
I found my strength to fly
I've soared since then and conquered scars
I found this woman-woman
She's the best I've ever been
Its love she's sees now coming
I have a heart so beautiful
To give and share again
"He's" out there thinking, "Where is she"?
While I'm here...awaiting "him".

Fantastic!!! But don't just 'await': get out and about, shake trees, appear here and there, run into others, talk, trade jokes and tales, let them see you alive and well--looking, searching, laughing! What a photo too!

Susan, a very moving poem, Susan..I can see that you wrote this quite a while ago..It is so refreshing to see how we have progressed in all aspects of our lives..I would never go back, but I would love to have the "time" back to enjoy our new lives...
Peace, love, and light,

WOW! Very emotionally discriptive, very strong and positive. There no keeping a southern woman down.

Stay well and keep writing.

This poem is so beautiful, It makes me cry. your heart is as big as all the good in our existence. Your soul has been tried more than most, yet you can still love, You have even awakened to the reality of greater love and you've helped me to do the same.

This is one of my favorites of yours.

Love, Pierre

To break free from inward attachment on people for love, past/present paradoxically one the radiates a disposition of love to the outside world, and is free within....

Love the poem....
