THE WRITER.

 

JOURNEYING INTO MY HEART AND FEELING THE BEAT OF MY SOUL,

INTO THE UNKNOWN, WHERE ONLY CERTAIN PEOPLE WERE ONCE ALLOWED TO GO,

FARAWAY PLACES IMPRESSED ON SHREDS OF LIMITATION,

AS I GO DEEPER INTO THE IMAGINATION, AS MY PAGES UNFOLD.

FEEL THE ANTISIPATION OF MY ADVENTURE AS YOUR FINGERS TOUCH,

BRINGING ME TO LIFE AS I ENTER INSIDE YOUR HEAD AS OUR PATHWAYS CROSS,

TO PLACES AS IT NEVER USED TO BE OF PAVEMENTS OF GLITTERING FROST,

EYES OF MY HEART OPENED BUT SEEING IMAGES OF NOSTALGIC HAZE,

THROUGH PATHWAYS OF YESTERDAYS THAT HAVE LONG BEEN GONE AND SPENT,

AS THE FABRIC OF TIME HAS WORN AND THREADED LEAVING A GAPING HOLE,

WHERE THE PROJECTION OF MY MIND SHADOWS ON THE VIRGIN PAPER AS IT UNFOLDS,

BEDDING ITS INSCRIPTIONS AS IT LAYS ITS HEAVY BURDEN ENTWINED LIKE A RIVER FLOW,

SPILLING THE STAIN OF THOUGHTS AND LEAVING AN AFTERGLOW,

PROJECTING VISIONS AND OPENING SENSES TO THOSE WHO START TO ROAM,

GETTING CAUGHT UP IN THE ADVENTURES OF A CARNIVAL OF FORTUNE AND FATE,

AS I GUIDE YOU THROUGH WHILE YOU FOLLOW ME INTO THE CORE OF A SECRET PLACE,

WELCOME TO THE AVENUES AS YOU WALK THE SAME PATH AS I LEAD YOU FARAWAY,

WITHOUT LEAVING THE COMFORT THAT YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY OF FAMILIAR GROUND,

.

Welcome Sue. I love this poem. Heartfelt, honest, full of fantastic imagery. You are very brave and creative. What kind of painting do you like?

I love pastel painting rather than with paints although have done a few acrylic ones. I have written lots of poems that are on my page called simply poetartiestry. I anyone would like to visit and give their opinions I would be delighted as this site here is all very new to me.
