Heidi Sands Poet Rhyme

Places I Feel Free

*Blocked

There’s a chill in the air
Reaching my bones
Leaving me feeling all alone
I have so much to say
But, with so many eyes watching
I can’t find a way
My heart, it has a lock
Only some can find the key
Times, I just don’t want to talk
So, I hide internally
There’s a chill in the air
Holding me back
Waiting for an open door
To overcome what I lack
I think of beautiful places to see
With views of someone reaching me
And with these thoughts
I make my way…
To places I feel free

Carolyn Devonshire September 11, 2019 at 3:10 PM Perhaps the "chill" in the air is caused by loneliness and past experience is making it harder to open "the door" to love again. Heidi, many of us can relate to the feelings expressed so beautifully in your poem. A fave for me! Hugs, Carolyn Heidi Sands September 11, 2019 at 3:22 PM You have left a very insightful comment. Thank you Carolyn. I appreciate your visit and considering it a Fav. :)

Tom Cunningham September 11, 2019 at 4:36 AM Sometimes we just need that bit of me time Heidi to charge our emotional batteries, Tom Heidi Sands September 11, 2019 at 9:21 AM Yes. You are right Tom. I am on a break out of town for a bit. Thank you! Have a nice day :)

Alexis Y. September 10, 2019 at 2:53 PM Hi Heidi, I can relate to this gem of a write. Sometimes I don't want to talk( I'm not mad nor angry). I just need to regroup and breathe and exhale. Now that I think about it that space is a freeing space. I enjoyed the read. Have a wonderful day;-) Alexis Heidi Sands September 10, 2019 at 4:33 PM Exactly Alexis, a type of space, sometimes needed. Thank you for your comment and understanding :)

M. L. Kiser September 10, 2019 at 11:24 AM This makes me think of those cold, grey winters when everything is stilled by tons of ice and snow. Well penned piece. Heidi Sands September 10, 2019 at 12:04 PM Thank you for your visit and kind comments. I appreciate it M.L. Have a nice day :)

Chris Green September 10, 2019 at 8:26 AM There is a tinge of sadness in this poem Heidi, the feeling of being all alone wishing for something to help quell the feeling. Hopefully that place you feel free finds you soon. Heidi Sands September 10, 2019 at 8:31 AM Thank you Chris. It is nice to see your comment. I appreciate it. Hopefully the chill in the air will leave soon too. Lol. Have a great day :)
