CIMMERIAN MIRRORS

CIMMERIAN MIRRORS

A Poem by Rene Velez



She channeled her anger,
colors of crimson red and
midnight blue, her canvas true,
walls she walked through

I extend a reassuring hand but
her palms hold the darkest storms,
she is lost in emotions
with no free hand to wipe
the cimmerian mirrors of her heart

but I am not clever enough or
wrong enough to fulfill her needs
I am here in her fear,
her halls marked with
the cruel and insincere,
a world of blood and stone

emotions I will atone,
I will paint her canvas in loving tones.

A vivid hue of a write that combines the most common, but most beautiful of color primacy. You breathe excellence here.

i can feel the power and anger in the piece from the first word to the last stanza. magnificent. one problem i noticed was that occasionally the end of one line would blend into the beginning of the next without a pause or punctuation and sometimes that made it difficult to discern what you intended. perhaps punctuation?

"I am not smart enough or wrong enough..." Brilliant line. Love the entire piece, one of hopelessness...and hope.
