Underground

Underground
So cool and so free
No one here to bother me
All the crazy streets
Lie above
Pathways I can take
To see my love

But she can come to me
Underground in twisting tunnels
Drops of water falling through funnels
Dripping magnified by echoes magnificent

Only I can hear
I can't tell
Which is far
And which is near
Dark and damp caverness walls
They set boundaries
Ones I cannot pass
Watch my life
I am the last, she loves
---------------------------------------

My first of the night

"The woods are lovely, dark, and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep"
-Robert Frost

Oh wow, this is just such a wonderful poem!! I really really love your work! Hope to see more!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I'll be totally honest here and say I didn't like it. It was well written and everything but just didn't strike any chords.

Keep posting.

I think you did good
I do think that you were going round with the same point though
Maybe it's me, I've probably misunderstood the poem
In that light, Can you explain the poem a bit
Thanks

Your work truly amazes me, fozzy. This piece definitely belongs in my library. VERY nice job...

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Reminds me of a book i read once or twice or three times. "Neverwhere". It's a very good book. This is lovely writing. I will be sure and keep an eye out for your work
