Michael Weeps


Michael weeps
and falls into
despair.

Abandoned
to the
silent nights
of
lonely starlit canopies.

His voice cries out
and yet
it is not heard.

His solitude
unbroken
by a
single spoken word.

here's a word for you..... (((((hugs)))))

and it's parenthetical, to boot!!!

weep not, today,
sweet gentle man
please do not cry
in grains of sand...
your verse shows you
inside of you
and it is  true
some understand....

Michael...the brevity and the words you chose, underline the message of sadness and aloneness that I feel in this poem....that makes it a good poem.  Big hugs to you, my friend.

Such loneliness leaps from the page here.  Hang in there, Michael and keep writing.  It always helps.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

Michael, So sad did this made me feel and it was so obvious that you were hurting.  I hope you have enough people around you to let you know what a lovely, kind person you are.  I feel very privileged to have met you.
Take care......Sue

Thank you all for the hugs and encouragement.  Seriously, I'm fine.  The past eleven months have not been good ones for me and I guess I just let it get me a little down.  I sincerely appreciate your kindness.

So quietly wrenching....

from such a heart springs a poet, indeed....

Decaflame,

Thank you for your kind words.  This is an older poem and my mood is that of healing now.
