I search, down through the cobwebs of my heart Passing the corridors that have not seen or heard of love Where the harp does only sing in silence at hope And once desires die, in a cage created by fear I wipe the eye of inner cry then hold the heart now torn I hear the voice of hunger cry for loving to be born I hear a prayer from emptiness, which fills and haunts the soul That warmth and love might once appear, to make this body whole But the cobwebs live to gather, just to congregate and grow The corridors stay silent without change The harp stays ever soundless, as hope brings no reply The dream of ones foundation walks away |

Thankyou everyone, I am not as sad as I seem, I came up with the first line and took it from there, poetry so often relates to love or lack of. I wish you all much love. Sincerely Rick Thanks for your comments. |

This is so desolate, I'm glad it's only poetry Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Rick, I like the mixture of no rhyme, rhyme, no rhyme stanzas. It reads thoughtfully, carefully, as if one was sharing a pondering moment... thank you! |
