I know....I know... I am terrible at promoting myself. It's really not easy for me to put my poetry out there but I'm still trying. I read a poem out loud to all my co-workers on Tuesday....it was terrifying and I couldn't stop shaking, but I survived.
Here was what I read:
It is past. The voice whispered
It is all but gone
It is time to move forward
Time to go on
Memories will linger
Dreams may haunt
Try to be strong now
Find what you've sought
Nights are the hardest
Painfully alone
Cry for now darling
Your pain's always shown
The sun rises again
Though tomorrow there'll never be
Only the endless changes
Discovering who is me
"Look deep"
Whispered kind
"Search though the folds
Surprised what awaits there
Treasures the soul holds"
Beautiful female standing
Next to a tree on a hill
Oceans of plains
Vision without will
Slowly she turned
Profile highlighted by sun
Hair blowing gently
We were but one
So peacefully she stood
Surrounded by naught
Brighter image of myself
The lesson being taught?
Remember. Distant now
What you've been shown
Find your spirit sweet child
It is time to come home
