Rhapsody

I would create for you
just one rhapsody like no other,
and lend you a moment 
of my inner silence--
then perhaps, you may understand 
the war that beats 
within my heaving chest,
as you take me in
through your soulful rain.

Beautiful and expressive, Ashley! "inner silence" and "soulful rain" create the perfect atmosphere for this impressive poem. #7 ~ Regards // paul

Your poem expresses feeling with little wording and that is hard to do. Nice flow of words and a pleasant sounding poem. Emile.
