Leaves Tease, This Reality

hibernating are the deep, those dark emotions of the heart - pulling thoughts apart, eyes are closed tightly, will light break through? (life) it strives to awaken the senses, of my reality - breathe in, before moments cover or try to smother me . . because leaves love to tease, this reality
------------
~ depth invades light, as light seeks a way of escape ~ Author's Note~ Darkness doesn't mold me and could never hold me. Sometimes, the muse dives into the deep side.

Moments of the heart where dark thoughts may linger, but the light always breaks through

Captivating words - agreed sometimes flirting with the dark side can gain new perspective that can lead the way back to the light of the Carpe Diem path :)

I love the way you encourage with kindness. Being new to the world of poetry I tend to let all my emotions fly yet to your point adding a filter and not showing some on paper is a good thing. Thanks again

Thank you. And I don't linger in darkness, but sometimes the muse insists. :) So, I follow her lead. It is good to let all emotions free. Even if you don't place them upon the page, for all to see. I appreciate your kindness. ~ Brandy
