When a Poet Bleeds The Blues - Poem

in #poetry6 years ago (edited)

When a poet...

Bleeds

the blues


His pen begins to ooze 

the blue rivered stains

of his pain upon paper


Often writing,

from the edge

of his sleeve

He leaps...

in to the breeze

as his words become wings


The open horizon

sings


As he flies away


Melting blissfully 

upon the soul...


of our memories

Very nice! I really like the way you transition from the paper to the skies. As a poet myself, I can feel the pain "oozing" onto the paper and then the relief and release as the flowing words lift one's spirit into the air and ultimately scatter them to the winds. Beautiful!!! My description doesn't do your poem justice (which is really the highest complement one can give). Well done!!!

Thanks.

Well done, felt very atmospheric, keep it up <3 namaste
