" Soul Sketch"

A soul sketch of a silent desire
Can be as intimate as love
Or as cold as death
This is a night before
When the heart is empty of delight
Happiness I wanted to say…
In front of the fire
Whispering…cracking sticks
Stripping bark into straws
But it isn’t about happiness
Or a dream to build kisses from
It’s about the imagination
A soul sketch of a silent love
It’s a sketch of a poets mind
A poet’ love and passion
And the free flow of her pen in words
About her emotions… her love… and desire
Sketched in the dark corners of her soul
It’s not about happiness
But the intimate sketch
Of her spirit deep
Whispering… cracks… raw
But with a beauty
Deep within

I am amazed at how well this captures the raw spirit of the poet, showing how the need to share thought and emotion cannot be expelled any other way. The music fits beautifully, too. Thanks for this.
