Down Love
Words trapped behind
the wall of my fingertips
Can you just read my mind
words they fail my lips
My tongue twisted round
Cherry stem knots nice and round
It’s you I’ve found
Pull you to the ground
Obligating none
This is only fun
Honey shhhhhh relax you won
Poet manic weary traveler
Starving artist heart unraveler
Who do you wish I was
Don’t know why it hurts but it really does
Wait Let me think
If I let you drink
From an endless river
Is it love that you deliver
Stand alone as I shiver
Rarely receive I am a giver
Mind drifts to a house
On a hillside beneath
Undo my blouse
Centuries interweave
Always miss you
Since the world got dark
Analyzing you
Play upon your lucious spark
It’s not for me
It’s not your turn
To be the one
My longing churns
If I missed out on it
My purpose here
What good am I
If I can’t bring you near
I want to cry
I always do
In the back of my mind
Every thought is you
I know better than to occupy
Too much time with these thoughts but why
I really need a little more of you
Just a breath allows me to renew
It’s better than any other
Salty like the sea
In fantasy you’re my lover
You reflect straight into me.
You unwind
I find
Rewind the story now
It’s due
Me and you
It’s true I can show you how
I love the poem. The first part of the poem reminded me of my younger years. I had a speech impediment and went to speech therapy for a while. It made things a ton better, but when I got really tired I'd have trouble saying the right words. Somebody told me the phrase, "Listen to what I mean, not what I say" that I still use this day, and I would use it and it would break me out of my frustration and allow me to laugh at myself.
this is not just poetry.
this is the expression of the heart.
I see you poetry on with life.
you are great @lorilikes.
other people poetry by guessing.
but you express feelings and hearts.
I am touched my dear.
Verynice
Yesterday is gone
Sweet Jesus
Tomorrow may
never be mine
Lord teach to

"Words trapped behind

@lorilikes loved the way you expressed. You i also found words that were trapped behind my fingertips this is for you.
Oh your beautiful poem
makes my heart open
With the flowing emotions
how will i overcome
The truth is spoken
rather be it stolen
With the mind broken
or is it an omen
And i am lonesome
like a lonely batman
No other words i can find for rhyme
Maybe its time i end my poem.
It was real fun while making my first poem.
of its titles DOWN LOVE
this poem is very beautiful.
Every verse touches, as I read, I dissolved in it.
this poem also tells what I have rsakan when I'm away from the person I miss and I love.
Thanks you so much @lorilikes
Likes is the epitome of female
That adorn the face of the sky world
The man fell on Earth
They await thy cuddle
I'm one of the many men
For many years who willingly broke hearts and the heart for you
Lori please teach us to write poetry like you do. It is just so beautiful to read your thoughts communicated in such an elegant manner. I wish wish wish I could do it. teach me please :)
Really? I could probably do a “how to” for poetry.
That will be really great ♥️
Please do xxx
That's a clever way of starting your poem. Hadn't thought of it that way.
Your poems normally confuse me. I try to get hints from your tags, but these ones just made me more confused. I read it again after seeing the tags and was wondering if it was somehow about children (centuries interweave), but that doesn't make sense from later on.
It sounds lonely and hardened though. Like over time the sharp rocks have gotten worn down, so it's not cutting, but it's still cold and there's no way in. Too much spent and now empty, but hard. Lots of longing. Don't give up.
For the @lorislikes is housed in the building of the liver
Culminate in the deserted road
When I come to you is the dream of my life
I be old Jaunty
At the end of my age who still own
