POETRY
again
…
you make me
soften
again
i suddenly see
the sky differently
again
an unending possibility
of easy
like Sunday mornin’
and infinite mystery
again -
the formal emptiness
of liminal space
twice removed
and patiently
waiting -
recedes
at last -
at last!
there’s a whisper
of soul seeping back
into the light
of becoming
a silent ember
to a roaring fuckin’ flame
again -
and
(i suppose)
you go
about your day
hardly knowing
how powerful
you truly are.
your relentless
gentle sweetness
pointedly -
restores
a distant life
from the cold hard ashes
of the last time
maybe,
just maybe -
one more time
again -
let it be
the last time
Dedicated to a poet on Medium
whose words and support
have helped bring a worn heart
back to life
I’m out and about meeting people again after three years of almost total isolation.
Don’t stop using your words…please.
