Poem Title:
Poem
Like tipper tapping tiny feet toddling I watched your mirriard of droplets stream down my car window Night sky like the backdrop of a show and the lightning strikes adding to the mood of the performance where ordinarily it might highlight or cast creepy shadows Several crashes of thunder the only sound affects breaking the deathly silence you could have sliced through Stormy air and the countless hairs of the body anticipating action was the change in atmosphere of any such production Yet for all the familiarity of yet another down turned weather front something was amiss I sat there trying to will my merry-go-round world to stop to let me off and set me free once more that I might strike out loose and run wild once more like a horse loose of the reigns widly galloping away alas I couldn’t budge just sat their frozen to my seat despite needing my home comforts around this hour Knocking every ounce of confidence from me breaking me to a point where my tears were but one with the evenings downpour No chocolate or ice-cream treats for pick-me-ups nor interval for refreshment here which would have been at least a little concillation No, right now the world stood still as our relationship played over from start until someone knocked on the glass concerned as to whether or not I was alright Black and boggle eyed from wet mascara and numerous tears like something out of a horror film I turned to see who dare break this spell Nodding to say I was fine but not stupid they could see far from it They pulled me out into secure arms You could have been anyone but you were gentle and understanding A raging fire warmed by chilled bones with simple hot sweet tea and the warmth of a blanket your eyes soaked me in drawing out my story you listened intently I poured out my soul You drank me in Bringing me out of myself you turnd so much sadness to humor putting another chapter of life to bed opening another as day broke through I am now thankful for what passed for without that part of life we might never be making our own sweet music creating future ambition and drive Nesting and nestling as one together Souls on one ship we sail new seas
