I write this poem alone and naked, proud and humble, pained and peaceful. I write this poem to you full of songs without music, words without voice, love without consummation. I write this poem to you eyes closed and seeing, face uplifted and blind, sky dark and roofed out. I write this poem to you with tears at the corners of books never written, candles never melted, flames never struck. I write this poem to you with my love. copyright 2000 Mike Chmielecki |

Martie, Thank you for your kind reply. I wrote this after realizing I'm in pain, but also at peace about it. Interesting feeling. Cerenity, Thanks. I've done spiritual poems before -- in fact, I think a lot of my stuff has spiritual themes in it, just really, really buried. This time I wanted it at the surface. serenity, I'm not laughing. I was touched, too (by your reply). Mike |
