(POEM) Shadows Of The Mind

9 Years Ago


Okay to post poetry ? I'm from Texas, Fort Worth. While most of my writing is focused around sci-fi books I'm working on, I do the occasional odd bits of poetry.

Shadows Of The Mind

This poem is Rated: EVERYONE

 

Within the recesses of the mind
There dwells a darkness; hard to find.
It fuels our emotions of love and hate
Brings empathy, malice, and debate.

Of whether it is either good or bad
To temper our sorrow or make us glad.
The gentle frame we call the human soul
Has countless facets none can ever toll.

We love, we live, we earnestly seek
Tranquility, harmony, abundance in peak.
For when two are bound within impassioned romance
we traipse amongst the borogroves; by starlight to dance.

And when we lie still in our bed
Dreaming the dreams of unconscious led.
Solely by our friends both known and then
The pattern of life starts over again ...
