Words
Ripping
Roaring
Soaring through my charred nerve endings.
Emotions
Rampant
Wild
Childlike need to be hugged and sought after.
Shoulder
Ear
Fear of not having these things to lean on,
Or speak into.
Whispering
Nightmares
Take me away from all this.
Just one restful night for my torn will,
Is all I need to come fully back,
To my positive self.
Frightened beyond belief.
Worries have captivated my being,
And tear at me with vengeful nails.
IN DESPERATE NEED OF STRENGTH!
Please..
Someone help me to the water,
Of lighthearted existence once more.

Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
