Ghosts exploding in the gems I seek

I’ve wandered far and
Remoteness has not offered solace
Instead I found serenity underground
To call upon me without my consent
Fury has untold reckoning

The devil keeps knocking
Love does not depart for it
Opens a never ending arrival
I do not keep score
Unless threefold in sorrow
Once I was blessed
Twice I was crowned
Thrice I drowned

To breathe again
Regrets are what I failed to say
I ‘m still at home although no longer alone
The visions undefined
Ghosts exploding in the gems I seek

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful poem into internal thoughts and life. We are tested daily. Life can give us decisions. Right or wrong. I like the honest feel and strength of thoughts in the poem. I tell people. We decide the journey. Good or bad. We land where we deserve. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I like this and I really like the below lines....

Once I was blessed
Twice I was crowned
Thrice I drowned

[Rene Salinas]

Engaging oh so engaging the longing. It has also a dark underpining that gives you the feeling that at any time the wwriter might throw a wicked line leaving breathless. But the overall feeling is of having tried and tried to no avail.

No one said it would be easy

Thankyou

Once bitten / Twice shy move over there's a new kid in town.

Your words are haunting, thought provoking, and your poem flows well

Wow. Very mysterious and attention-grabbing. I must say, I read it aloud to myself, reading it as if I was presenting it, and it amazed me, with how fluently it flowed. I think the line "Thrice I drowned", should be "Thrice I was drowned". I think that would be my main change to the poem. Nice title. Very original, and obviously captivating, at that. Well done.

I do like your pen, I've read some of your writings, and they are highly mysterious, and captivating...
This latest with no exeption. You make the reader really feel your words, and ponder, I like the slight horror you bring to it often. Here I adored your lines: "Once I was blessed, Twice, I was crowned, Thrice I drowned... there, is something religious about that, yet, you show us the dark side.

Excellent.
