I Fill My Pen

tonight I fill
my pen
with the liquid
of my heart
and I spill
across blank pages
a drop
of blood here
a smear of
soul there
be it
burning agony
or my
secret confessions
to ache
in his love
tonight I fill
my pen
with the liquid
of my heart


I’m not disappointed,  I never expected anything from you.

Helen,

I love this!  Makes me feel just right. A true poet's poem about writing poetry.

Does that make sense

Thanks,
Pat

Some ache, some just pretend,
Some write of emotion
Some write emotionally,
Your words undoubtedly come from an emotional heart
Please keep the pen filled
And write.
