A Piece of Me Goes With You

When I’m missing you

When you are gone away

I can feel an empty touch

Absence is the hand

That presses as it squeezes

 

The loss is like no other

Far from lost keys in the sofa

Nearer to aphasia

A loss of my fluid language

Is felt flowing away with you

 

Lost time along my path

Abducted creativity calling back

Misunderstood ramblings

Defy the running of imagination

Leaving no trace of your inspiration

 

Dawn upon me your light

Warm and awe striking

Shake that hand from my eyes

Fill me again with invention

Say you will never let me go

this is a very heartfelt write,
beautifully penned.
I'm happy I stumbled upon it

[Astro]

Well I am thankful that you stumbled upon my words as well Kora, and thank you for the compliment.

Emotional write, my friend. I love the way that you are able to take words and turn them into anthems of the heart. You have a gift that is so beautiful in so many ways. The muse has a way of coming and going from our lives, but know that it is always there waiting in the shadows when you need it the most. Well done.

I often wonder if it's but a dream painted on the back of a dragonfly I saw in a postcard tacked on a wall of someone else's life. Then the moon replenishes and the darkness begins to fade and I am holding crystal wings on the edge of my nose once again. Words, colorful words, meaningful words cut from my heart and fall like diamonds upon the page once again, shining and marvelous. The righted ship with uneven ballast free until the next wave overtakes it. And still...I can only type the words and fall upon your graces and the graces of others.

Nicely done Astro. Pure feelings and emotion in this.

Sometimes raw is essential to true conversion. Ideas pass in so many ways that we often forget the emotions we can attach to them. Thanks for the review Troy.

"fill me again with invention"... an outstanding line in a great piece, i see my brother of the pen hasn't lost it.

[Astro]

Thanks again Poetic, have you been able to break the creative Ice yourself? I haven't had much time to look up your Profile yet?

[Travis Gibson (poetic heroics)]
