To Be Satisfied

I sit here wondering what tomorrow brings,
the emptiness packaged to land at my door.
Sad to be missing so much these past years
of relief still not seen behind eyes wanting more.

So I write and I word in release hoping for
challenging boundaries left laying in drawer.

I wake to the darkness of morning in rise
without saying a word, without seeing a face.
I'm a prisoner of mind on the balcony ledge
struggling with feelings, emotions to replace.

So I write and I word thoughts of the before,
those phobias of yesterday plotting their score.

Merely a vision, as I begin dwindling down,
losing myself in the photos of time.
Surrounded by passings of days once serene.
I'm a whispering dreamer kept hungry by rhyme.

So I write and I plead with myself seeking core,
where my center is centered and I ask not for more.

Maureen these lines below I can relate

"Write and word thoughts as before

Whispering dreamer kept hungry by rhyme"

"I'm a whispering dreamer kept hungry by rhyme." ~ IWIHWT

The words you write in perfect rhyme
Are each a stitch in life and time.

~ May a package filled with joy, land at your door, dear Poetic Heart.

Loving hug,

Words and thoughts have a way of twisting in your head, sometimes the only way to get them untangled is to write them down. I like what you've written here.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Thank you for all your nice comments..I have been kept busy lately and only have early mornings or a few moments in the evenings to read, reply or post a poem...my brain is sometimes numb by the time I am home from the schools

I am trying to get a routine, but it's hard when you never know where you are  working or when...

Thanks again for reading me over these years.
