No gravity

A mix of words slapped together to create...nothing.

I exhale your taste
That bitter, rotten skin
North and south poles
Intertwined from within
No melodies to choke
Only daggers to spin
Yet your voice is pure silk
While I hide my glass chin
How quick that you turn
My words sail in vain
So much for the obvious
The antihero, I'm slain
You could say that I'm nothing
An empty picture frame
No gravity to hold
So I let go of this shame

Another one that really hits home... I am almost caught up in real time, and I don't understand how this can be viewed 50 times without any responses yet. Perhaps I've just been fortunate with my timing to be able to view and experience your catalog of years of work in over an hour or so. You articulate your work, and I don't know how you do it so well. It's evident you've experienced so much and so deeply, and I can definitely see now just how much time of writing poetry you've put in her to be able to dish out these pieces which you still continue to make look so effortless. I wonder if it's become effortless from all the practice and experience. I recall reading somebody commenting and asking if you were famous writing, and I echo those sentiments with, "how can you not be?". I mean if success were measured just on talent and pure raw form, I think you'd be a great success. I think you can still be successful, and I sincerely hope you pursue you book of poems as I think more of the world needs to see your work. I wish you the best of luck if you decide to pursue that path, and I look forward to reading more of your writings. To say it's been a pleasure tonight would be such an understatement... all I can say is thank you letting readers like myself into a glimpse of your mind, pain, and soul with these excellently written and beautifully depicted works of art. God bless!

Sometimes people leave a review, such as you have done multiple times recently, that leave me near speechless in the response I try to write. I don't know how to respond to such positive comments and reviews. I wish I was better with words so I could express just how much you(and others) uplift me with your comments. I feel the need to write more, to get better and to constantly post. Too bad my time doesn't allow that as of yet. Thank you again for all of your kind words, for the time you've taken to read and to review, I appreciate it more than you know. Thank you.
