Notice

Notice.

Notice how l loved the world
but eyes of others didn't see
Notice how l sang the words
but lips refused to speak it.

Notice how l heard the song
but no one ever listened
Notice how its all around
but people pushed away.

Notice time was always here
but now its made with fear
Notice somethings cant be seen
but came and went and always been.

Notice force invisible
but captured me and you and us
and Notice how it held us tight
to free the light from prison's night.

Notice how has gentle arms
but safely holds us tight
and Notice warmth now all above
to absorb its life and all its
Love.

Thank you so much for your kind comment. Another one of my poems l had forgotten about. Sometimes l think l think too deeply, but l guess all poets do that and writing them down helps get through this journey we call life. When l have sad days l cant write, but happy days l reflect & it brings me peace, even if its a sad poem. l wonder if others feel the same when they write poetry? take care. Jx
