Smokiness Poems | Examples


Amy

Your flick of eyeliner, 
Tattoo's and beehive
A bit of rock and roll, 
something of Jazz or Jive. 

Your authentic words
ingrained in our memory
Listening to the beats, 
tapping along to the melody.
The sultry, smokiness 
the range of your voice,
We're right there with you
the moment you soar.

As you up the rhythm 
taking us on a 
Nostalgic, Jazz filled ride.
When we saw how they hounded you
We felt that knock to your pride.

Your determination,
uniqueness and drive
Inspired us women,
Man you did shine.

Watched you grasp onto the feeling's 
to help release a little pressure.
Inhale the love before it became a bit lesser.
Back to Black when he went back to her.

You sang us through the hurt,
Coming down from the high.
We sang along with you,
We heard your heart sigh.

Walking around a little shattered and broken
A hole in your heart, alone and unspoken
Clutching to something to fill the void
Is it a hunger, a lack of nurturing and care.
When we need it the most hope somebody is there.

Mysteries of the Heart

Shadows, flew 
across my heart 
Dark too 

Such dark beauty 
Such mystery 
Shadows too, 
in the heart 

Amidst the shadows 
A light grew 
A spark... 
A rose... 
That was me 

Spilling out 
Petals falling 
Colour calling, 
I heard it shout 

To travel 
so far... 
Mysteries of the heart 
Such dark beauty, 
becoming light 

The smokiness within 
The battle of light 
The battle of dark 
A curious whim 
A curious spark 

Light and shadows, 
flew across my heart 
Such beautiful things 
Cannot rest in the 
mysteries of the heart
