    Alone

    I am alone. I have been for a long time. I don’t know what friendships are like anymore.   I am alone with all these ghosts of my past! Memories that I cannot tell were real or imagined.   I am alone with no...

    • Well I can’t say I relate exactly because I’ve always enjoyed more alone time than the average person, but there’s definitely a point where it isn’t what you want or need anymore. There is some value in learning to be by yourself but it’s still not always fun. I liked the repetition, really helped drive the point home.

    • You could have wrote that about me. So relatable! Awesome!!!

    • Great write Daniel

      I’m alone most of the time but seldom lonely.Lots of people fill their days but are still incredibly lonely.You can’t run from loneliness so best bet is just to make friends with it…works for me.
      I guess loneliness is different for everyone.

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. I can relate to this write my friend. I like being alone at times, but I’ve went spans without interaction when on a drinking bender, I started to unravel a little. It was a deep rabbit hole. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    My mood mimics the moon

     It starts off full and swelling bursting at the seams as if it will engulf the world in its beauty  Slowly, ever so slowlyIt begins to disappearAnd shadow creeps in  I secretly prayed for it to stay To embrace me in its warmthMy prayers...

    Silent Surrender

    She slept turned gently on her side,Her back to him, her breathing deep.He lay behind her, hands still tiedBy fear and years and broken sleep.He longed to touch, to press, to feelThe shape he’d loved so long ago.But silence...

    • Echo the others
      This is how erotica is written

      Bravo !

      • Thank you Poetspeak. I’m grateful that you spent time to read and comment.

    • I steer clear of porn for the most part. But this is not that. It has taste and intrigue. It’s a thoroughly enthralling read. Well done.

      • Thank you so much. I know I have the tendency to straddle the line between erotica and porn, so I am appreciative of your comment.

    • Passionately penned, RPM. Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

    Here, to break the days of the now

    Time’s sands, slipping through hands. Halo of fading light, the cold of the depth of nightDark halo as portal to the great below. How One could just Slip Away, lips pressed upon a Dark array of the broken day -Consciousness...

    • We have no choice but to be here ..

      Poets write sometimes in order to avoid Last Rites

      BIG
      LIKE

      Read twice
      Hit me different second time around as the bartender was calling for last round ..

    • Like PoetSpeak, I read this one twice. It has the feeling of a bell rolling in the mist. That question at the end…if you get an answer, I would like in on the knowledge

    • Powerfully penned, Cipher. This is a deep write my friend, lots of layers. Appreciate you.

    • ‘Light lies
      in
      bright
      eyes. Captured in forward and backward enrapture. The light
      of
      life. The seeming meaning
      in the
      dreaming. ‘
      A core of words needing a home, thoughts laid, meanings personal yet to share. Takes hold on the second read.
