Where the child can be free

I felt the need to post a second poem.  I feel fairly creative in the early hours of the morning.  In, my opinion, it isn't as strong s my first but it was easily more complicated since I encoded some information about me in a rather complicated fashion


Where Silence Lies

Scarlet, painted in the distance
an imprint of beauty and sorrow
six velvet tears fall from eye to earth
faded petals from the rose

In the early mourning glow I lie
wide awake and drowned in every moment
passion consuming, controlling my dreams
a masterpiece of crimson

Each thought is now a spiral
Beyond hope and past all saving
As the gentle smoke still rises
I've found where Silence lies

Welcome to Passions, openthoughts.  There is so much to read here and so many good poets -- don't feel overlooked.  This is some really nice writing and I will keep my eyes open for more.

An invincible summer.

Silence is ever intoxicating, ever eluding and always seeking control. It carries great power with it.  Loved the poem.  Keep writing
