Jerry Hackett Poet Rhyme

Your Place In My Thoughts

This room of mine is barren, your memories were sold
When the  gavel was laid down your stories disappeared 
With word and deed complete, there's nothing to be told
Will I ever see a treasure or ever hold the same
Might my room be filled with more than devil’s flame 
I'm imprisoned with one thought, its me not you I feared

Beautiful Scars May 11, 2018 at 12:53 PM always loved the word "barren", love your rhythm especially. So much said in just one stanza loved every word. Thank you and congratulations on your placement :)-luloo Jerry Hackett May 11, 2018 at 4:33 PM Thanks and my favorite word is ancient, thanks for the hosting.

Joseph P. DiMino May 7, 2018 at 4:39 PM Brutally honest! Great writing. It is seldom good to run whether from self or others. Unless running is best for everyone involved. There are times when this is true. Jerry Hackett May 11, 2018 at 4:34 PM Thank you Joe
