To the Wind

To the Wind

A Poem by Mark

I gave my blood
spilled and cold 
it sat

I took your love,
mixed it in.

Rumors.... high in the flying wind
will never disperse
only rise again and again


I'd wished I could but 
never ever knew
what was in that heart of gold

I sat and pondered 
long and hard...

had we stopped to care?
I asked why we couldn't dare.

The Earth is lax
and the sky is fat
but all in all
it's only dangerous til we die.

I'd love all that's human
if I knew it was only blood
It's the parts we don't see
makes me need you mixed with me.

What a journey your're displaying here, it's like an adventure into the unknown, the waiting to be discovered.. life and love carried in the wind. Somehow I want to find a soft silk net and draw it closer and closer. This is a strangely tender but powerful post, one that's set me wanting .. Thank you so much for sharing.. 'The Earth is lax ~ and the sky is fat ~ but all in all ~ it's only dangerous til we die.'

Always a good journey in your words. I like the flow of thoughts and the above lines. We must be fair. Hope for the best in the people around us. No weakness in the excellent poetry.

A graded piece that tells us never to believe in what we see, always look deeper, well done.

ya, I'm kinda proud of that line myself LOL Thanks for reading Mark :)
A thoughtful, romantic write with some lovely sentiments, especially the final two lines. I wondered if this was about forbidden love with the ref to "rumors" that keep appearing? It's a beautiful poem. Justine

Mark, romance seems be pouring from your pen lately. This was wonderful. I loved the questions posed in this one along with the ever present heart beat.

Well when it comes out it comes out very nicely.

I'd love all that's human
if I knew it was only blood
but it helps that you're along
and we pour together in our song.

We given wonder and faith but no assurances … Great one, Mark.
