Home Is Now Shadow

Home Is Now Shadow

A Poem by Frantzou
"

Here I walk in the midst of your shadow.

"





























Here I walk in the midst of your shadow

 tears engulfed in flaming smoke

my bitter heart tightens, but

through the  serene breeze  your love conquers...

 

I've walked pathless ways,

climbed everlasting hills

slept with the wolves

until dawn, I pounder the thought of you being so close yet so far...

 

Perhaps heaven is a star

casting upon my soul your everlasting love

though your spirit has lightened my way

the memories of you will always stay...

Upon sight I could see right through this picture. I can see someone who finally comes home to find it gone, vanished. I hope you guys like this one, and the music is just so awesome. The music adds a new element to the picture and the poem.

What drew me to this poem was the picture you have. It reminds me heavily out of Matthew McCormack's film The Road; the darkened skies, smoke, and the sheer vastness of hopeless and isolation that is portrayed. My favourite line in this poem is: "Here I walk in the midst of your shadow
tears engulfed in flaming smoke" You have a great way with expressing yourself through poetry and it works very, very well. Thank you very much for sharing

And all so dark, catastrophe, the end of the road/world..the emotions slaughtered, the tail of end of despair, love, this is amazing!
Such depth!

This is a magical combo of words, emotion, picture and music... a sensory delight. Thanks for sharing this with us.

I loved this poem. It was interesting. The rhythm was kind of hard but I thought that was perfect because the people talks of a struggle. Great job

I connected immediately to the words here. I feel like I can go into the picture and completely understand it!

I like it. Very sad poem and an outstanding one. It's like hoping for something very strongly and finding out it can never be.

About
My style of writing poetry is a little different. My poems mostly inspired by photography, and music. A picture is worth a thousand words and I love find the words within the photo. Frantzou Fleur.. more..
