Enchanting Words
Is it me hidden in these pages? Is it really me? Venting away on a page, staining it even now with a single thought. Scribbling a lifetime of words. Words that enchant me.
I don’t believe one needs glosses or alphabets to write. All you need is life. Everyday is like a blank page set before you. Go ahead, tell a story. How about one of love?
time circles a ring of desire
and no words will suffice
ripe as a kiss
woven with sun
with eyes closed
I await you
I’ve never been the cause of such words, emotions exchanged with a rose. Maybe that’s the reason they haunt my mind. But tell me a story. How about one of sadness?
I turned back to the house I grew up in
covered now only by shadows and dust
I tried to remember being happy
but the pain of today was too much
it wouldn’t let go of me
my childhood was finally gone
Oh how I wish I could make life better for my family with a simple poetry line. It is so hard to wipe away tears with a wish. So many things one can’t leave behind by simply saying goodbye.
Just one more story. Please, make this one about you

…oh lotus how tru “how I wish I could make life better for my family with a simple poetry line. It is so hard to wipe away tears with a wish. So many things one can’t leave behind by simply saying goodbye.” If it were that simple, things would certainly be a lot different…take care.. *ana*
