Poem #1
#1 of My Poems
My words and my dreams, what flows from my soul.
i started writing poems long ago, never gave them titles, posted most on my facebook.
Lately i've been told to post them else where, to share my words.
I'll be trying to upload them now.
i apologize for my gramical errors.
Each day is a gift, from mother, from father,
From everything that is, all the powers that be.
Even though i am burdened as i am with this weight,
I find my release through this written word,
Sometimes, i sit here, in pain,
every muscle screaming at me,
Burning like so many forest fires.
Maybe this is to humble me, i've been told,
angry as that makes me feel,
to be tested like this, nobody deserves.
as i sit here, writing to speak my mind,
whilst i record from the shadows,
I feel a greater purpose in my life,
something beyond my grasp.
As power and energy rushes into me,
My skin feels like it melts away,
my form growing bigger and taller,
My right hand goes numb, as if i'm missing it,
from the mid forearm down, i feel nothing,
then i feel a phantom sensation.
A tail swaying behind me, i turn to look, see nothing at all,
but i feel it as if it was truly physical.
My eyes close, the feeling,
no the need to dance filling my entire being,
voices rising up all around me in song,
a Drum beating loudly behind me.
My voice rises, in song, howling to the moon,
it brings me ecstasy and pleasure as i do.
The pain long gone, if for just a little while.
