somebody's dungeon

0 posted 2003-03-19 09:07 PM



I will place within mind
pictures upon finished weave.
Tiny, etched with care,
portraits, and there,
in small of space
events and a trace,
              of loving.

Just something,
a tint, a hint,
around the edge of weave,
                   the tease
of pain. Introduced again
as letters from him,
sent on whim,
        reach my tired soul.

Tears erase the words,
insults not heard, hands
to block out the noise,
to silence the voice.

The weave absorbed,
while I ignored...
the waste of precious breath.
I'm not bereft. In the scheme
you don't even exist,
yet feelings persist,

I will always love you Dad.

Anne, I'm so glad to see you back on here more
often. You always weave and paint your words
of your poetry with excellence. this one is
no exception.

The content of this hurt, though. It has a
sadness about it. Kind of like some confusion.

thanks for sharing with us, friend....

Heart Hugs,
Ethel

There is a lot of emotion in this poem. I have read it three times, and its passion does not dim in the re-reading. Brava - it is excellent.

the only man worth your tears will never make you cry

Thank you Julie, I have those too. At my age, you call them "senior moments"
