Diaries and tiny keys
Opened doors
To thoughts unspoken
Indigo blurred
By rainy blue eyes
My full heart emptied
To fill blank pages
Lyrics and chords
Strumming tales
Of the deep and the dark
Words and voice
United in song
My full heart aching
To fill open spaces
Pain and torment
Tapping keys
In a candle lit corner
Creative crescendo
Boundless and beautiful
My healing heart open
To infinite places

poetry is a place of healing…of exploration of those feelings in a ‘safe’ enviroment…and a place of connection as well…where we can relate to others feelings as well…
I totally agree. 🙂
Indeed, poetry can be the place where mending begins, keeping it tucked, locked away until we can take stock of where our emotions take us. I loved how your poem showed the evolution from journaling with ink and paper to now, as we share our thoughts almost instantly via the internet.
Thanks so much for your kind comments….and thanks for dropping by. 🙂
It is nice to see that poetry, journalling…writing has been a part of your life for so long…and the discoveries are endless. Oliana
Thank you Oliana! When I look back I have always had the urge to write, but I have never had the creative flow that I am experiencing now. The more lessons we learn in life, the more joy, heartaches, realizations, etc., the more we have to write about.
Thanks for commenting. 🙂
Pain and torment
Tapping keys
In a candle lit corner
Creative crescendo
Boundless and beautiful
My healing heart open
To infinite places…
…I really like this stanza…it spoke to me…felt.
Thanks so much. I am always happy when others can relate. 🙂
being open to infinite places…I think that is where poetry comes from. I can relate to the healing, cathartic feelings that poetry helps us find.
It really is true! Poetry gives us so much freedom to express ourselves, tell our stories, opinions and release our emotions. Thanks for stopping in. 🙂
Nothing like a broken heart and a confused mind to wash out emotions and stir the creative juice. Beautifully rendered poem here of your beginnings and your growth. Thanks so much for opening up and sharing this beautiful piece.
Thank YOU! Your comments are so sweet. 🙂
poetry is a safe house for a broken heart… we are free to express ourselves fully, through poetry/writing/music etc. great write and thanks for joining… can’t get to everyone before the linky closed, sorry I am late coming… smiles
This is so true…there are little or no boundaries. It can be a very healthy and healing place to be. Thanks for commenting and for giving us such an excellent prompt.
This is so poignant and emotive.The repetition of the last two lines in each stanza works so well. And, as others have said, poetry often springs from a place of pain. I enjoyed!
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
This is sweet.. How writing is to the person doing it, like you put it, opened doors to thoughts unspoken, and our healing hearts are open to many place. ..smiles.
Thanks…it is true that poetry offers us so much for growing, healing, releasing and creating. 🙂
Really enjoyed this.
