Notes About The Poem

Written on September 30, 2023

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Disorientation

darkness plummets on twilight’s peak cascading like a gentle creek veiled by the night, I must confess I’m puzzled by shadow’s caress at times, confusion stills my hope like climbing a slippery slope fetches doubts that bring nervous stress I’m puzzled by shadow’s caress perplexed by the depth of my fears feels like I’m lost when the smoke clears drowning in the black, such a mess I’m puzzled by shadow’s caress uncertainty silences dreams the thief, worry, goes to extremes dimming beauty, bringing distress I’m puzzled by shadow’s caress baffled by the seas of dismay turmoil that leads feelings astray sometimes in life, more peace is less I’m puzzled by shadow’s caress

I could feel the angst and despair in your words.. the feeling of being lost and helpless.. you excellent descriptive words create a real dark picture here full of confusion.. more peace is less... great lines through out..
