Notes About The Poem
   blind love,,

The Boy

~THE  BOY~        

I can not see the boy..
I can not feel the boy..
The boy who stands in front of me..
I want to open his eyes!
"HE'S ALL ALONE!"
"HE'S ALL ALONE!"
I see pass his lies!
Surrounded by the stupidity of everyone..
Indulged by the sea ~ Of only me
He sees no waves ~ He feels no waves

This boy can not see me..
This boy can not feel me..
This boy who holds me in his arms..
Screams are hidden in the corners of my mind..
I do not wants to be seen..
He does not want to be felt..
Sadly I found him ~ and he found me
I use to refused at every opportune moment
Slightly in one fall
He fell ~ I fell
In front, is all i'm left to say..
The mirror he blocked
The mirror I blocked
We both look in ~
The vision ~ only goes one way
With my broken heart
With his broken smile
We gazes at the world around,
and realizes it has no eyes..
Selfish pride ~ Selfish needs
Life has been broken
"SO MANY TIMES!"
"SO MANY TIMES!"
He chooses not to care
I choose not to see
Some where in there I loath love,
and still he took me and shook me..
He made me see ~

But still  I choose not to see
I will never win!
That boy  took me by surprise,
and yet he's the one that opened my eye's
INSTEAD!

PD What an intense and deep poem full of emotional pain and despair. Very chilling and eerie. Thank you for the nice comment on my Cowboys poem.

I like the concept of not belong to each other but don't wanna be alone... Everyone can relate, I bet... Especially for us, women :)

He and she within one soul. In one reflection you become whole. The truth is all we have to own. No need to let it shake you to the bone.

This shakes me PD. There are givers and takers in love. Hard to fathom why the givers are so unappreciated. Been there so many times and never learned to walk away unscathed.

Irma, I am glad the "boy" has made you "see" and I hope it stays good forever! He sounds like a real keeper, hon. I enjoyed this one for it being so easy to read and heartfelt. Luv, Andrea (I'm gonna try in the near future to find recent poems of yours I may not have seen. I keep thinking I have seen all your poems, but I know there must be some that I still have not ever read!)

A strong expressionistic poem, an impressive cry of the adventure of looking for the Other and mirroring in his Self...

WoW! This one is very deep. I get the picture of two people who see the child in each other. The lonely, sad, scared, angry little kid. Good stuff here. God Bless, JB

"I loath love" as well, this poem is majorly lovable though because it dares to speak of imperfect love if I'm correct and I love it for that

I'm not sure I fully understood all you try to convey in this piece but it is obviously written with deep feeling. The interaction between the couple and the easy flow of words make an interesting read. cheers Margaret

Beautiful PD, so much to absorb in this write. Especially I love the part about the mirror with vision only one way. So special these mysterious verses are. Luv, Lizzie

A poet can use any form he or she wishes. I use freeform quite a bit myself. This is a very interesting write, Linda...full of angst and tension. Inventive and more than a little intriguing! xoxo Robert. (Soupmail!)
