“Carried Away" A Poem By @balticbadger

in #poetry6 years ago

Carried Away.

Carried in with the wind, energy resonates deep inside of me.
An aura surrounds me, detailed on the lands of my body with needlepoint pressure.
Tingling, I heave back and forth navigating through a vast ocean of Egyptian cotton.

I open up begging her presence to enter into mine.
She is still. I send her unconscious demands to envelop me into her bosom.
Stale air creates a static charge that fills our entire world.

My mind generates a spark and a circuit board of synapses delivers my every thought.
In a mere couple of half hours, my manic mind plots an entire future for two.
Each thought more moot than the first,
I know that our existence together is eternal in that single moment.

For the first time, she is embraced into my soul.
What was once abandoned now is renovated with her unconditional love and purified with the moist breeze of her breath.
Wave upon wave of physical senses crashes upon the shores of my nervous system, washing away any doubt once held.

Agony, misery, and heartbreak all fall victim to the turbulent surf of her relentless love.
Those three mountains of obstacles now can be seen carried out to sea with the retreating tide.
They become nothing more than faint islands that dot the distant horizon.

My fertile earth is now exposed for her to see,
no more will she have to battle the powerful undercurrent that once existed to pull us apart.
Now she stands on my shores, and peers into my conquered heart, my love and trust are now hers for the taking.

That is real fire from the soul you have there. Love draws words from inside and the best inspiration for all forms of art and writing. I also love the photo that matches your poetry very well.

Thank you very much. I appreciate the thoughtful comment! :)

Ohhhhhhhhh..... this poem left me speechless. But I loved how you described the whole sensation.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Very cool! I love how electric your descriptions are! Probably the most accurate poem of passionate sensation I've read before!

Thank you so much! That's really nice of you. I feel like poetry lets you be yourself. It's not like you could have a conversation like that. The same goes for music both are great ways for self-expression.

howdy sir balticbadger! great poem, great photo! hey I think you need to teach the old timer here because look at those earnings! I'm lucky to make a dollar after 4 months of slaving away, how did you do that?

Thanks, janton! Sometimes you're lucky and a big curator will give you a big upvote. On this post, I used @tipu and @sezenke. @tipu allows you to upvote your own post with more power and @sezenke is a resteem service I like to use. There often a lot of writers and poets using it so it nice to follow too. Any questions and let me know I am happy to help.

howdy there balticbadger! see the newbie is now the teacher! actually that's great posting material right there isn't it?
well I don't upvote myself or that would kill my Engagement League standing, is sezenke a voting bot?
yes I know all about curie if that's what you're referring to, been studying them for a long time to find out how they operate.

I think the are I’m not sure, sometimes i only get a few votes, sometimes I get hundreds. ROI is not very good but I’m more concerned about getting a larger audience. @tipu is the best roi i have gotten. Not sure if there is anything better out there.

well if I wasn't in the Engagement League i would check it out but that is strictly a no self vote program.
I'm an expert in getting a larger audience, it's what has made me the champion Engager for 11 of the last 12 weeks in the Engagement League
but from what I've seen you are doing everything right in that department.
you are commenting on more and different posts right?
only limited by time? so you can make up in income for the time by using the vote bots.

Exactly right! Using @curie and @steemitbloggers is how I find all the content I want to read. I haven't been let down yet. Both supply amazing content I love to comment on. The engagement league sounds awesome! And you are definitely the man for that contest!

yes sir those two sources provide all the content you need and the steemitbloggers support of each other is really great!
I just don't know if the no self-vote method is the best but at least that's the way they run the contest and they claim that you can make more money by not voting for yourself but I think they allow vote bots so let me know if those are a good ROI that you have.

I've read so many mixed reviews about them that I decided not to even try them. lol.
thank you sir!

Yes, it's like fishing you gotta bait the hook to catch the big one lol

I enjoyed your poem @balticbadger, I could feel your passion. Love is a beautiful thing and an eternal source of inspiration for any artist!

Thank you very much! That is very nice of you. Sadly pain too is one of my biggest inspirations for writing. But from the deep and dark often comes light and beauty. Thanks for reading my poem. :)

Beautiful poetry @balticbadger. I really got lost in these words while I was reading.

Thank you very much! I am glad you enjoyed it :)

Don’t get me wrong, this whole thing is wonderfully filled with words that feel less like speaking and more like painting.

But this line wow

What was once abandoned now is renovated with her unconditional love and purified with the moist breeze of her breath.

I really appreciate your kind words! Thank you. I somehow managed to capture the moment on paper. That's what I love about poetry!

Wow..you are a poet as well :)

A wannabe poet lol! Thanks for stopping by :)

A poet with deep emotions huh :)
