![]() EvaporateA Poem by Scott Lee
Even if black words lie broken apart
and you are left bleeding alone and naked by the shoreline waiting to drown... Even if dreams turn blue against her steady green A stealthy hand turns levers in your heart, pulls out rugged mountains you carried alone. A stealthy hand unleashes rain helps carve a river down your center and turns you upside down and right side up, from all directions flow the waters. Even if words fall apart and scatter away like little feet that once were yours- Still running through thorns for a chance to ride a priceless, summer river. Even if she evaporates- her shiny dew drops absorbed back into sky. At least you had a chance to love and hold and know her stare shined for you like moonlight wind caressing pines- how her gleam dared to illumine shadows turning dark skeletons into impressive, majestic creatures singing praise unto the night. Even if her hate settles down like haunting embers leaving eternal scars to burn and burn and burn away. My love is always here anyway glowing mysterious in majestic pines. © 2014 Scott Lee |
