What does the world
See
Through my tomorrows

Dollar signs,
Mistaken identities,
Fallen dreams,
Or
My poignant smile

…

Can we bare the judgments
From tomorrow’s “bliss”

When all our tears want
Is serenity’s kiss

Through the rain

Through the rain,
We
Rise

Another climb towards epiphany’s sanity

But, through these tomorrows,

Who shall walk by my side?

Hopefully the poignant smile, friend. You have an unmistakable style it seems. They are like little trails of thoughts that somehow weave into an intricate poem ... I also enjoy how it's not just about words with you, but you seem to want to make your poems very visually appealing as well. Excellent!

Yes, that visual appeal is very important to me, for my readers. This means a lot, sir. Thank you so much!!

I dont know about the dollar signs nor the mistaken identities, but I can see some fallen dreams , and an amazing smile, but hey Im com9letely Opeless : ) at being a clairvoyant : ). Through the rain, we all rise one day or another.. Remain true to yourself and you ll never walk alone, your soul will be your faithful companion, crowds are merely true friends. Love your honesty in your poems. Fantastic to have you back here, and awesome to read 'you' :)

An insightful poem that penetrates reality! Well done, dear Drake! Nice to see you again!

Poet Tacito

Per usual, that means so much, Demetrios! Super happy to see you around here still too. Cheers!

So glad to see a new one Drake. With words like this I suspect your tomorrow will have no shortage of walking companions!

Poet Tacito

I have a few new things in the queue. ;-) You may be right. But, life is full of surprises. But, bring it, I say...you rock, Richard!!!

Heather Ober

Yes! A new one! :) What I love most about your poetry is how open it is to interpretation. I can read one of your poems several times and come away with something different each time - The sign of a true poet! "Through the rain, we rise" - Is it okay if I make that my anthem for the next little while?

Poet Tacito

September 11, 2015 at 11:22 AM

WOOOT, HEATHER! :D That's what I aim to do...to have the reader (hopefully) learn something new with each re-read. Layered poetry, perhaps? Also, yes, you absolutely can make it your anthem! Be the thunder. ;-)
