[hometext] => Wrote this for a teacher of mine
[bodytext] => Reborn from my shell every time our paths cross Like the first time for everything. And I fell. For the prettiest girl in my class Like my first step was a doozy And the room turned upside down I felt woozy. Like an egg in a frying pan I cracked, and cooked My fueled desires Like a flame in propane Or my last breathe of air For there’s no holding back Without trying I could not fare Like Mother Nature she struck me Words uplifting and hearty like honey I was flying. Like a wild rose She had it all She could make me melt Like a monsoon she smashed my walls And let the water quench my thirst I was nervous and could feel the earth quake. “There’s rules in this world, rules you can’t break” said the voice In my head So I waited. When I’d rather take torture Than count the seconds of suspense That became hours that became days that took weeks.. When I should have been dating I was outdated Pleasure felt numb I was sedated .. all because I waited As time flowed past Like slow drying glue, I realized what I already knew I could never get to the mountaintop The first step was in the clouds, like my dreams This girl was surreal. With the highest ladder And the longest reach, on my best day With my sharpest lines, I could never reach her plane. We lived in two different dimensions And everything I had to offer was poison Tar that would pave cancerous roads Where birds once sang and the deer once sprang So I swallowed the world, at least to me And swore I’d quiet my ecstasy How could I tell her? “Hey you’re the duality that in absence feels lonely”? Or that all is well when you speak to me? No. I could not. With my head in the clouds I failed to see The war that was raging inside of me. Like King Louis XVI revolution was close My emotions were starving and the reality arose That I could no longer keep quiet my feelings My body is filled, so I had to unveil Just this one truth. My compassion through restraint has failed me I’m sorry this slipped And I hope you forget this script. Thank you for showing me true brilliance A flurry of snow, and the light Of a world unknown [comments] => 1 [counter] => 104 [topic] => 2 [informant] => DeGwynci [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
