My Soft Curtain

What I don't know; exactly what you expect to find
It matters not; I leave authenticity behind
Low, for all of the beautiful light that falls on me
Lonesome I can not help but weep; intrinsically,
Outside sadness; many rings inside internally
Woeful my grove; but it is spectacular to see

Take me down to the ground; such strength in gravity
Reveal to me; all your deepest, melancholy
Emotionally; thrown at me without a mind
Enter my soft curtain; a solid trunk you'll find

Very uniques. I felt this had double meanings in the lines. And much velvet like emotive softness. Thank you Pamgie xx

You and I are the same of vein, my poetry is written for me; I choose to share it; not because I need to but because I want to. I respect your response on a cellular level. Warmly A.S.

I never wrote when I was young, however, coring my life, I wrote on and off. Not poetry though.I do write directly. For me, that’s my catharsis.it takes 10 years to be a good poet. I am nowhere near that. And have zero desire to be published or famous,now or in the futire. Pangie x x

I find more catharsism in ambiguity; when I started writing at a young age it was to deal with hard experiences that I had. Working through those experiences required looking for answers in many different ways. Warmest regards A.S.
