Notes About The Poem
Silent One's My Heart Is A Secret Garden Contest
My Heart Is A Secret Garden
While midnight wears the longest hours
I circle around like a threadbare of glow
When the bulb in the room snuffs, fades
Leaving me alone in throes of love's farewell.
In a world drained by pain, somehow void
Of claritv and filled with unbearable angst
Its pale twinkle seems to speak of loss--
As I uncover this heart's misgivings whirling
like ghastly shadows,
That even the crush of leaves cannot hold.
How my heart leans nearer to understand
All the secrets my voice needed to disclose...
I wander around the yard... mv arms
Hanging at the sides: a whiff of air blows,
In need of a private confession, of my acceptance ,
To unleash such heaviness buried
Within this soul: love 's second chance
pleading for my vulnerable strains...
Finally, fresh blossoms open heart- space
My pride slain across the mirror of twilight
Until closure ends in deliverance,
With my heart seeking relief from cold, cold arrogance.
