Unfamiliar

Living for years

in solitude

A massive wall 

a couple of good books

Some common sense

Kept a soul 

in a gross mass of peace

i saw you

a spell was cast

suddenly

a vast world of empty

which consoled an old soul

had you

emotions started moving

the speed of it

was intoxicating

I figured i shut the door

Sealed all the windows

you seeped in 

and all i can see is your aura

filling my every place

i took a deep breath in

dizzy with a form of euphoria 

for a couple

i feel the high

until the brain kicks in

seeing the changes 

all the freak out buttons are ignited

no place 

can do

no book

can silence it

no friends

can laugh you away

no sleep

can shut you out my dreams

so i misbehave 

you do not lash out

so i can hate you

for a second or so

unfamiliar 

life flows through veins

that were more than ready to rest

refusing to figure out the blood

you ran in me

to be

venom

or 

a 

cure

I always love your creativity & specific descriptions & original observations on life. Sometimes I don't like the way you break your message up into little jagged chunks that take away from the smooth flow of reading. Some stanza breaks happen in places where one would not pause, so it feels like a bunch of disparate phrases, instead of a cohesive message. I understand if you insist on using this style, but I wanted you to know it doesn't add to your sparkling imagery so much.

sometimes we are so used to being alone, and safe...that we get scared to like someone...and we want to find some way to hate the other person, find something wrong with him or her so we can rant and rave and find reasons to get out...

i like it

i am quite famous for resistance ............. when i go to a hospital usually the anesthesiologist is shocked by me they would give me extremely strong things and i never go out .... or lose the ability to speak and ask my doctor questions while he is operating ....... i guess its time to stop doing that

this is so relatable. i remember when my partner first moved in after i had had two years peace from males of any form ..thought i was laid back till then..all of a sudden i hated all his music..what he watched on tv...everything..couldn't believe how settled in my ways i was till then, took a long time to get used to things. ggreat wprds :)

I was going to read it again, but I don't think my emotions can take it twice right now. You took me for that crazy ride. Well done.

[Nisreen]

yep once your heart wakes up to love and you get a taste of love then a world you had before can be a void of emptiness to go back to, until one day in the future you reflect on that time with a smile rather than pain.

[Nisreen]

i think i am slowly getting to that ...... thanks Andrew

[andrew mitchell]

its always slow but you get there!!

Some would reduce that to a mere chemical madness. "It too shall pass..." might be the resting point.

Humans are interesting in the way we function: head and heart; thoughts and emotions; object and subject... Your poem paints a picture of how these things are sometimes wrestled with.

when you put the heart out .... and suddenly it goes back on ....... oh its creepy
thanks :P

Amazing use of words. The words were gentle and strong at the same time. I like the feel of internal thoughts leading to good ending.

Most of us fear change. But we need change. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
