Wile Away

Poem Body

I'll wonder awhile
watching your reflective eyes
catching sweetly in our
fractured mirror views
do you see me?
my vain soul believes it
but my logic is a mere
drop in your hat trick words

inspired...always
like those forever words
decided for us that
those burned rooms
and haunted halls
would whisper promises
we could never keep

and still I wonder
don’t we
on some infernal plane
keep those promises
and come back in quiet
hooded masks
to disguise not from
one another
but from those
that would steal our
pelts for warmth
and our lush capes
for their own status quo

like halos
glimmer at the door

like shoreline journey
at the shore

not from each other

never

"burned rooms and haunted halls would whisper promises we could never keep"
did we want too................

portions rations when we are so hungry
ran back so far in there

and yet Im still right here

then the sudden question, it has such an impact, becomes so meaningful.
I love this poem for its clarity and for the mist that encircles it at the same time, the contrast, a chance for interpretation and at the same time like a statement. Iam looking forward to reading more in the next days.

moody moons drive me here
from subdural drone dreams.

want of

read a poem
like being in the ruin
again

the sun slaking the darkness
with its taste
honeysunshine

reality laid haste

Christmas snows
gentle murmur through
the lamps black standard
vigil

another year come away
..

Esker

cant deny it..
Im wounded again
and come here
your words rolling
through my spirit today

Thank You for this poem....

A lovely write so full of food that feeds the soul, of thoughts that are shared:- on some infernal plane-- did you mean Plain ??? as in open spaces of land??
Loved the piece to pieces, Yours Ian.T
