Exhale Poetry II

A Poem by Frieda P
"

For Lee ♥

"
Butterfly haunts me
   flutters in the darkest of night
when the smoke dismally cleared
    all that was left was a still photograph
no breath to be had, no words to be spoken
   perched upon my affection where no one can see,
         all the secrets that taunt my scarred soul 
          our story's final chapter closed too soon

Left behind in your spirit reminisces 
   like an erratic zephyr, they twist my mind
     nothing sacred in how you fled the atmosphere
I oft wonder have you found destiny's redemption
     as you floated aimlessly from this earth
etching markings on a sky of colorless clues
surrendering only in my dream's illusions
     still tracing the dusky painted haze
                          all that's left is to exhale poetry

Seriously hurts my heart to read this, Frieda...

It's the pain that flows through the vein of your poetry, which I find the most endearing...

"I oft wonder have you found destiny's redemption
as you floated aimlessly from this earth
etching markings on a sky of colorless clues

surrendering only in my dream's illusions
still tracing the dusky painted haze

all that's left is to exhale poetry "~ This moved me to the very core...

Stunning....~xoxo~

Your wording here is fantastic. You can feel the loss and the reaching. You have a wonderful way with phrases, and I'm always enamored with how well you express these emotions. I hope poetry continues to help you transcend, my friend. Keep writing, and thank you for sharing!

This one touched me Frieda....really got to me. The loss of someone so close has a pain to it all of it's own. The memories will serve you so well my dear and may you smile again soon. My heart is with you.

It is a tragic rage, after a smoke is cleared you realize you are chasing butterfly, and when you are close to them they just turn out to be an illusion.

The constant pain will be the eternal beautiful ink to your writes. Destiny choses writers like you.
