the voice of the poet speaks to me in the silence of the night telling of loves gone wrong and of hearts made right she speaks with a voice so clear, so soft and so sweet that upon hearing it, my life is made complete she tells me of her life, and shares with me her heart and every word, every line she speaks, is a work of art proclaiming in those words how she faced her fears how she rose and met them, battled through the tears now she stands here again with part of her life's story she asks not for fame and she asks not for glory all she asks is for one moment of your time to listen to her words, and hear her heart in rhyme --------------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

You know that feeling when someone says something so incredibly amazing that for a swiftly sweet moment, everything pauses and sparkles? Feels as if someone grabbed your heart itself and gave it a hug... Your words do that, especially these. Magical Sven Pen. In the worst of times, let me drift beneath the cloak of Oblivion. I favor the night as it favors me. |

When my sleep is broken And I shake from nightmares, I turn on the computer Lose my troubles and cares In the words of poets. With some, I sympathize Others astonish With sweet coated lies. I cry, I laugh, I'm touched in some way Without sleep, I'm refreshed For another day. I love your poem, Sven... and hope you don't mind my thoughts wandering. *S* (Now if only I had a poet to cuddle, the computer would stay lonely! LOL.) |
