Her World Is a Little Room.

Her world is a little room
And her furniture sparse
Closed the walls in
No matter how often 
She rearranged
Them to let herself out
The world closes her in
She could not breathe
Until the fire levelled everything.

Shiki Remindio Date: 5/1/2009 8:29:00 AM It's not a free world is it? Pity, since one must give in order to get the heart longings. I thank you since even the smallest comments go noticed. Everything is, let me say, fated. I think, no I know, that your poems are spectacular. But that's still not enough. Thanks for your kind words. ~Shiki Login to Reply

Steve Voorhees Date: 4/26/2009 8:10:00 PM Is there a freedom in the destruction of her reality as she knows it? Until that fateful fire she remains a prisoner of her limited exposure to the world at large?? ...these are things running through my head as I read this....very deep in it's limited text. Great write! Much love, Steve Login to Reply

Lena Townsend Date: 4/26/2009 6:15:00 AM This one can leave many impressions on the heart of the reader as one can picture a room blazing and a body being freed from the suffering of the world or fire burning within the soul and cleansing it, baptising it in Spirit, that it may again know the freedom of love and life as Spirit intended. Powerful write. Very touching. Well penned. Smiles from Lolita Login to Reply
