A Cord of Dreams

they were dreams shared
moments held close
a whispering breeze heard
only by two

and in a few short moments
a shattered dream tangles with a demon
Now I bleed my own wrist...
and take ax to the roots

Stocking the wood pile
so that perhaps... our
fire will begin anew.


"...I am a river in winter,
quiet in the eyes of most
but deep,
swift and full of life
to one, lucky enough to fall through the ice.

Interesting. Gives me mixed feeling, but I liked it.

I write poetry for the sake of peotry, for the sake of art. Not for you, not for them, and not for me. I don't write. It writes itself.

Wow, what a lot of power in such a short space - each stanza with its own story - deftly woven together!
Very well done!
