Locked Out

You tell me.

I’ve been waiting for someone I don’t know

I’ve been planning to go where I can’t go

And there’s a lot of sand beneath my feet

My mind’s in the clouds

Could you bring it down?

 

I tell tales from the middle of nowhere

I sell anger and you pay me if you dare

All the nights that I’ve seen you

Now they’re too far away

When I try to touch you

Here comes the day

 

And how does it make you feel?

When you’re hidden you can’t make it real

And how does it make you see?

‘Cos if you’re still blind that’s nothing to do with me

My dreams are all locked out

And I won’t need you around

Anymore.

[Coyote Poetry]

A very strong poem. Easy to get twisted in the emotion of love. People with too many dreams are hard to hold down. Sometime we must find peace in a release to be able to wander to a better place. We hope?
"And how does it make you feel?
When you’re hidden you can’t make it real"
Thank you for a excellent poem.

a painful piece, I believe perhaps about unrequited love.....well done Karina

Such a heart felt pain behind this piece. Makes the heart stutter and the mind pause. Wonderful structure and word choice, flows wonderfully. 2 thumbs up =)
