I'm here, but I'm holding my breath
the sun's in my eyes, the wind catching
my hair, my hands fall deep inside my
pockets, as you teach me,
it's okay to breathe again.
I yeild to you, and just as,
as I reach for you, just as
the wind caught my hair, you
blew away.
Nostalgia
Hi Bella! This is really good- but- I think you need two edits- the first five lines should be an individual stanza- line of space , then continue (powerful pause for thought if you do it this way), second edit- the last line 'nostalgia' should not be there- thats the title of the poem, we know what we are getting, and it is much more stronger if you do not say it. In poetry, the things which writers do not say, but force you to think, are th strongest. ty Bella Luna.
Sorry about the 2 reviews on my previous posting bella,just wanted to say i think this is a wonderful piece of writing expressing inner fears but releasing those damaging repressed emotions,time might not heal all wounds but it helps us to move on,perhaps this poem could be re-named "WIND OF CHANGE" like in THE SCORPIONS SONG
I like the free flowing style here. There is a nice emotion. I enjoyed the uneven lines
because it feels more from the heart. Its as if the words came out naturally unrehearsed.
sweet!
