Just a Question

Just a Question

A Poem by T. Jones

 

What do you do
with dreams
unretrieved
from your lover's end
of reciprocity?
Do you pull them back
and hope no one noticed?
Or take up the slack
with your own love and devotion?

I wish I didn't read this. I know this question will be in my head now. However, I guess thats how potent it was. I only wish there was more, but the content was intended.

A poem to confuse the inner person.
You inner self wants to be released but how will you be portrayed?

sometime love makes you wann just curl up into a ball and cry!

I love this one !

PEACE!!

Love the poem so much. From the form to the flow. A really great read. To the point but it contains such a complex question. Such beautiful wording here.

Love this.

Such a complex and thought provoking topic to have been laid out in such a clear and accessible style. Easy on the eye but simultaneously tinged with a tragic sadness.

One of the best things I've seen in my short time here ;)

To the point, to the point I say. Very clever and minimally sad. Hotness with a quickness
like spinning silver. - smile.

Succinct and beautifully worded. If this broke your writers block then it is all the more poignant. I always admire the way poets can say in a few words something that would take me hundreds. Congrats.

A very strong poetic question? If your lover doesn't return what you need, do you pretend it never happened, or do you give more? I like the ending open to interpretation... is giving more what we should, or simply the first step on the road of abuse.

Thought provoking is exacgtly the term I would use, excellent word choice, thank you for posting it. How about pulling them back with your own love and devotion? ah, if only it worked that way.
