the art of words that fall onto pages from nowhere

glass echoes in ice cold hollows sounds loud but absent to our ear I hear you speaking but see nothing nothing really becoming clear falling transforms the still standing beneath the line I cannot cross haunting whispers beyond the curtain pre-emting inevitable loss twilight becomes the weary traveller invites rest for tired dreams cascade silkily into sanctum sacred sleeping silences velvet screams

a lovely rhyme scheme, Di11y. Sometimes words just fall on the page (like you said) and you just feel the need to share. I've had that happen many times...there's power in that rawness. Enjoyed the read...have a great evening, Sara

Thanks Sara, it's fun to look at them to see if there's meaning or not sometimes and then they grow on you a bit. Thanks for the comment

Nice rhymes and good flow to your poem.. Interesting thoughts here and i like the line, twilight becomes the weary traveller.. when someone is in a certain moment, they will not hear the other... so what is the point of communicating? that is when tongues become silent...

Thank you, I'm not sure where this came from - just something I half wrote yesterday and finished as I walked into work. It looked quite pretty and seemed a shame to bin it. Thanks for your comment
