When the tap, tap, tap
Becomes a rap, rap rap
And the moon comes rolling ‘round
I twist and turn
I break - I burn
And bring the sledgehammer down

In darkest night
I cry – I fight
And fall unto my knees

In timelessness
I hope – I wish
For eyes that couldn’t see

When the slow, slow, slow
Begins to go, go, go
And the sun picks up the pace
I ache and yearn
I panic – I turn

Fantastic! Made me want to break out all the Edgar Allen Poe I've let collect dust... if that makes ANY sense.

Sounds to me like you are coming out of denial and it is hitting hard. This is an excellent write of pain and pent-up turmoil.

Let the feeling go with the flow. I picture sleepless nights tossing and turning.
Keep going.

Great portrayal of anger and emotion. The ending was quite intense, and I liked the fast-paced flow of the poem. Good work.

this style is especially interesting - I like the fast pace of the last couple of yours I just read. It's neat to picture you up all night long and know where you might be standing when you see the hawks and clouds - I am awestruck by what you do with it. I am so happy the words are pouring out of you - it's a very very good sign. You are truly an inspiration and I love you so much for your strength and your weakness.

I read this last night and I was quite literally speechless...hence, there wasn't a comment. This is because the emotion in it hit me so hard. Some of it is my frame of mine. Some of it is because I feel I am relating to it.

So here I am again....reading it.

Whatever the case, it shows that it is a powerfully emotional poem and that to me, is what makes poetry great (including this poetry) and what some poetry is all about. Feelings and the way we express them....and yes, I may be repeating myself but it's worth repeating:

You are brilliantly awesome in the way you express yourself and lay those words out upon the page.

Thank you,

Timber
