GOD�S SENSE OF HUMOR

It is what it is.......

 

Flowing words

From deepest chasm

Wounded

Screaming out in pain

Sacred thoughts

Cloudy dreams

Soulful script unfolds

Esoteric metaphors

Lack of metered rhythm

Critics can be damned

Jeers the aging wordsmith

Nobel truth

Never futile

Needs no coy defense

Melancholy smile

From she who truly feels it

Distant twinkle

Darts through her misty eyes

So beautiful

Hypnotic

She lives on the inside

Warm

Safe

Secure

Longing for solutions

Going through the motions

Genuine fulfillment

Beyond her silky grasp

He wanders

Just outside the glass

Lonely

Mystified

Trying hard to sustain

Brave game face

Trusted Gentleman

Gazing in at her

Craving her angelic touch

Familiar comfort zone

Surreal fantasy

Thirty years

A vacuum

So many things have changed

Many more

Not altered

By the fleeting time

God’s sense of humor

Two separate lives

Unique relationship

Friends

Forever bound

Four hundred miles between

I had to read this a couple of times to get the gist of it. I take it you are separated from someone that means very much to you. You also seem to read between the lines with her. Very well done, my friend.

I just can't seem to pick any specific lines/stanzas to "talk" about: this poem as a whole REALLY touched my heart and got my emotions going. . This poem is touching and goes deep into the heart, and has a sense of seeing into one's heart and soul. It seems as though the person who is speaking sees beyond what people may want them to.
and, you were right..."it IS what it is"!!

As always this a thing of beauty and holds many truths that we sometimes overlook what may be so obvious
to others. You seem to see more of people then many would be comfortable with. Thank you and God bless.
