DOUBTS

A tear again, first from the left, it runs the length down to her lips.
As after-thought, the one on right, is brushed away by fingertips.

She's closed her eyes so many times and dreamed the moments wanted so.
And then the doubts begin their rise, and all she wants is all she knows.

She's lost her sense of timing, in directions never gets them straight
Her body craves the loving touch and still she's there, she waits the wait.

Her mind then fills with loving doubts, from yesterdays, tomorrows new.
When all she needs is comfort words, to wrap her soul, in thoughts of you.

D oubts are such inviting thoughts
O ften blocking moments ripe
U ntil the heart relieves the strain
B y kissing passed the message type
T hen gaining strength, to rise above
S oftened words fill heart with love

A tear again, first from the left, it runs the length down to her lips.
And followed comes the smile that forms, when kissed by loving fingertips.

Hardrock you now that the word doubts in the poem is an acrostic..I have never learned about poetry until last year when I  landed on a site that challenges and teaches and I am  a pattern and structure person. Rhythm and rhyme comes naturally to me and I enjoy all structured form ...to me they are a dare..a challenge and I liked  combining the two this morning as those tears of doubt did trickle down my cheeks ...I write as a daily diary if it's a new posting..unless on this new forum I choose to  bring forth an older poem to share.
thank you for  your sweet comments
Maureen

I am trying to post a variety to show my abilities but also for others to see that freeform and rhyming isnt the only way to write.*S
