Expression exploding from mind
Blown beyond simple comprehension
Finding hidden whirling tasks
Reaction reeling to unwind

Bouncing ideas off rejection
Landing in unmade puddles
Impressions one would steal
Cold hard metal facts

Looking at nothing seen
Flying past undaunted future
Head above swirling tomorrows
Bottom drowning between lines

Hills in distant vision
Between eyelids and horizon
Scraping cloudy sky dreams
Rain drops replacing sadness

Changing times thoughtfully dead
Seconds away from eternity
Lost skeptically below forever
Farming out excess imagination

Stroking faces never touched
Still kissed by infatuation
More given less wanted
Grasping at valued nothingness

To dance beneath waves
Crashing on rockless desire
Held in cruel suspension
Blending into blueless obscurity

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Robert, such emotions and fervor fill your bittersweet verse! (sigh) I know such pains and feelings like these, ones so obscure and dark, though also our hearts explode with feelings of heaven and euphoria, of love and happiness! (smiles) BRAVO!!! IT'S SO GREAT TO SEE YOU HERE! (big hugggsssss) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

this sounds like a war going on through someone's emotions. Very interesting thought

Sir Robert,
I liked the tension in this poem. A brain teaser.
