this is a poem i wrote back in october.

The hearts of mourning have rung across my floor,
the blessed beast
knelt before my knee
and begs of me to set him free.

The love of life,
my only ease,
has run across the lonly seas
and brings to me a fit of tease.

Does thee be born as sharp as knife,
as loud as horn,
turn to prick my finger with thorn?

The last lap of a dog
is all I hear, the fire snap,
the watched deer.

What does
this that ceases me
and binds the cusp
upon my sleeve?

Kindly,
Redheart Angrybraids

Glad you posted this, Redheart. I liked the first line.

I'm grabbing my hat and coat
I'm leaving the cat a note
Quick call me a ferry boat-getting out of town!

A comfort that becomes torment...hmm...and is it the thing or desire that makes that so...or lack...another thoughtful piece, redheart...

thank you Elizabeth.

You got it right on the nose serenity,
my boyfriend and i had to have a healthful brake from eachother, and he was literally across the ocean in hawaii, and is the love of life in a figure of speech, (i hold my own heart at all times, but i let em touch it). All the rest is question, doubt, knowing, letting go, letting in, praying he got better. everythings cool right know, if you know what i meen.
