reflections on drunken misjudgements

Brave the sea of silence
break these weary walls
rest upon these shoulders
for a fleeting moment of time
warmth can be my blindness
in this world's picture of lies
watch these hands extending
to help is not a crime
afflicted with affection
tension had us bound
side by side I'll walk with you
an illusion so sublime
your smile conceals a fire
there's beauty in your storm
a poet couldn't write you
no voice could sing your rhyme

Author's Note

not sure what this is or if its even a legitimate writing style. I was hoping that someone could tell me

This is so beautiful. I would regard this as a poem. Perhaps even prose poetry. The way each line flows from the next adds to the onslaught of emotion that the poet is experiencing. The last two lines tie up the poem in an effective way - they also tend to remain in the reader's mind after the poem is read. Please do keep writing!

Thank you for the encouraging review. To be quite frank, I'm new to writing poetry. I've written songs before but writing poetry is far less forgiving. Conveying one's emotion without the help of a melody is a little tougher than lyric writing. Thank you very much. I am glad you enjoyed my post Christmas scribbling. I will check prose poetry out and hopefully get inspired by other poets to write more. Thank you so much for the feedback :)
