She Walks In Silence

She walks in silence, like a lapping wave drowned in chastity and flooded with rave holding dear and tight her very beauties denying all her gems and rubies. Her powers disabled under the spell the flame in wouldn’t break out of its shell. Tempted to trace a humming call of fate allured but reluctant to take the bait. The strings of her heart lost their pitch and tone the clutches of mind hurting to the bone. Untraceable are the paths to no end unable to soul unself and ascend. She walks in silence, like a gliding breeze fervent rising prayers brought her to her knees seeking the blessings of grace, peace and love if only her pain she could rise above. Nameless beauty would dissolve in her womb Her wounds.. sins she would carry to her tomb. Inspired by “She Walks In Beauty” Lord Byron (George Gordon)

A great poem! I like the rhyme, and the sentences flow smoothly. Nameless beauty would dissolve in her womb. Her wounds.. sins she would carry to her tomb. You deserve all encouragement, sister Besma. Good luck.

I liked the honest thoughts and the internal life showed in the words. Most of us. Hold silence to thing done. No honor in raising old sin or mistakes. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

To me this speaks of a woman raped and she decides to keep the baby, but the baby dies in her womb. She is left alone. Whatever the case, well written and may love cure all, when time is no more.

A sad, but lovely piece. "prayers brought her to her knees". I would send my sister, every flower and tell her all she is worth... daisies, roses, and tiny yellow bells... beautiful. Ann

I like this: "The strings of her heart lost their pitch and tone the clutches of mind hurting to the bone. Untraceable are the paths to no end unable to soul unself and ascend." Very spiritual and inspiring; this verse describes the agony she is going through, quite well; beautiful imagery.

A beautiful eloquent retheme; a word puzzle fitting like a fine tailored suit and most of all to read such an intimate confessional about the most intimate madding ambiguity of sorting out the sacred from the profane I love the quandary.
