Enigma

some will turn off the wonder, others will turn it on. wonder and imagination are fun and very inportant in life.

I am
an enigma,

Reach
...........inside of me
...............turn it black.

Give me the world....

And a crown to wear...
So I can cry

Radiant tears.

I am an enigma,

Reaches inside of you....

Turns it all a white display...

Its all the light I have within
Me.

I am an enigma...

Reach inside of me
And turn it all back...

The eyes of a clock...

The wings....and the flight..

Propulsion....Stimulation....

I am an enigma...

Reaches inside of dreams....

Wishes granted of the heart...

Reach inside of me

Turn it all around....

I am an enigma,

Wrapped in my own skin....

Reach inside and pull

Outwardly the spoken words...

Reaches inside of you....

Its all the light I have within

My being

Is spacious.

The universe of you..

Overwhelms me....

The marrow in life...Flowing

Substances of sentences...

Reaches inside of me,

A star I wish to hold and cherish

By the moon light...

Where I reside...

Reaches inside of me...

Turns it all around...

Love and embracing...

The universe of your
Heavenly being.

[chicagogirlonce]

this is really good-love the spirituality of the last line--it is good to revere something holy--you are an enigma indeed-something sort of shy about you--how neat to be a cook also--to feed,nurture, nourish.
we all need the nourishment of our souls--poetry feeds our soul.....thank you-just for being you,just for being.
