Pearls Whisper In the Crevices of My Soul

My center has been caught underneath that which will never let go
Of pearls that sigh and whisper in the crevices of my soul
Although the darkest of creatures call out my name
I am not unconsciously held on their horizons
Nor will I ever breathe the same

Distraction returns as a sad mistake within a facade of goodness
Staring at me with intentions of pacing the words I weave
In hopes that I will abandon my art to dark lands
Without seeing the dust there on his book
Or pages not touched by his hand

I will continue to fight for these pearls and hold my own beliefs
Stay centered without distraction of dark philosophies
Although night may fall upon the day conceived
I will not be held on anyone’s horizon
Or of my pearls be relieved

an expression of your self identity Neva...one must always stay within their center and beliefs...to many are lead into those dark realities...so few can comprehend the strive to stay within the Light...just like those pearls of yours...such is your voice...

Absolutely exquisite poem Neva, your work always seems to capture an energy and lightness which is incomparable. Your pearls are yours and none can stand against the strength in your gentleness for it is much stronger than than all dark creatures. Light does always dispel and dissapate the darkest of darkness. Radiantly Beautiful!

Neva, I am touched by your words to a point that I am speechless at this moment. This will go into my favorites so I can later read whenever I need to feel at peace. xo

I like your confidence. You won't let anything get in the way of accomplishing your goals. You won't be easily persuaded and that shows your wondrous strength.

Even if others don't believe in our creativity we can not stop the process of writing. It is in our souls. It is what we long to do. Others may try to hinder our process but we must continue on for dreams and art are important to ones happiness. This is masterfully written with clear images.

Those pearls are shining bright, guiding you from the dark.

Those shadows in the night call our names aloud amd we keep walking by with a flashlight. We don't hear them loud enough to stop. Wonderful!
