Notes About The Poem

Let Loose


“Let Loose” 

The draw of the heart stings,
pulls me up like music strings
into the never-ending universe of you.

Your majestic symphonies unheard, 
are felt in the imprint of each word,
and pull me up into your unravelling, 

a beautiful symmetry,
pearl stitching the unknown mystery 
that is you. 

I feel the poetry that stings you
in every word you breathe, 
where in dreams, keys are played

in abstract scores 

and love, 
gone black and white, 
no colour, is for another's Kafka page.

I watch you strum your heart strings
like they are golden chords
runaway with the wild things,

Let loose -
I start to believe, 
in better things. 

The draw of the heart stings,
pulls me up 
like music strings, 

into the beautiful secrets 
of all bigger things;
My silent voice sings

The heart absconds the wind as the fires near. The build up is immeasurable.

Then let the fires come, for the heart does not flee to hide—it runs to be consumed by the very music we create. Thank you for catching the rhythm of my wild things.
