Your Tears Slid Down My Face

Perhaps you recognized my dark suit in your closet

occasionally your tears have slid down my face

our hearts could be beating in the same rhythm as we speak

your ink has stained my mind, mine has oozed upon your eyes

wide divides with no spaces between the twists of alchemy

no quasi hyphenation counterfeit resemblances to simulate

24 carats of pure unadulterated compulsive purging of the soul

weeping in your tang of bitterness, crying in your soul

with pen to paper, tears to dust through poetic firmament 

smiling behind melancholy eyes ruminating inky connections

A amazing poem. Your poetry is getting more powerful and love the way you use the language.
"your ink has stained my mind, mine has oozed upon your eyes

[Tai Ryens]

Unrequited love, expressed through the inky tip of a quill?

[Frieda P]

If that's what you like Tai, more like the sharing of our soul's craft and passion....

Knock knock, who's there ?
I wonder if Knock Knock is poetry ?
Stolen the thought, of so many common, connections we have, we miss, we give back....
You are right...Good night....

[Frieda P]

Poetry is in the eye of the beholder....yes, if we're lucky enough, we connect.

[lee von cleef]

Or melt a spot to thaw a cold heart.....

[Frieda P]

Meh, you saying I've a cold heart there lee? No coffee for you!

[lee von cleef]

No a poets job is to melt cold hearts and you do that with ease...

[Frieda P]

Ahh, sorry I misread you, I may have a fresh mouth, but never a cold heart, making you a fresh brew ;-)

[Ken Simm.]

Sometimes words can purge the soul. But they have to been our own words.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Ken, always appreciate 'your' words my friend.

Only a devoted adoration of creation could elicit such moving distractions. To be transported and made into a changeling living with such closeness to the lives of artists treading roads in remote terrain clutching hearts with one hand and bleeding ink with the other, is a gift. A gift shared with the world is a sacrament, a common wine, that tastes the richest on the lips of the lucky few to have shared in it. Great sentiment Frieda.

[Frieda P]

Astro, I am thrilled to say the least, by your review, it is poetry in and of itself, I'm humbled, thank you so much.

[Astro]

I'm blessed with expression, so, it is my duty to use it when appropriate. You're very welcome and thank you.

[Frieda P]

You are surely blessed, thanks again Astro.

[Astro]

np, my pleasure
