Between the Lines

If Only

I see no need to dispense those feels
that rise with me and want their out.
For no one knows what in me reels,
those turning inside, holds of doubt.

This dawn appears in shades of gray
with more to come and toil within.
I run from it, but bands me stay,
stretched I am, on thoughts too thin.

I play on words concealed between
those lines unborn, that hide just so.
Forgetting what the time has seen,
brought once upon in darkness show.

I hear those birds that bare their want
so early when the morning comes.
Another day of which to taunt
and push their will till I succumb.

Becoming who I should become
and doing what I should to do.
Changing this, the day's ho hum
into the start of routine new.

Another day to forward move,
if only to myself to prove.

Hi Maureen,
I hope you will have a very good day today,
and that all will be well. My thoughts and
prayers are with you.
Hugs,

Hi, Maureen! I would like to express how impressed (for what that's worth!) I am with yet another one of your emotive writes! You use such an unusual and creative turn of words that creates lasting images and emotions that linger long after I have read your poetry. You have quite a gift!

Warm, springtime hugs,
Linda
