REVERIE POEM 1

Sometimes it is hard to see what is coming around the corner. I have spent some time thinking about what it is that I want from life and wrote a few poems for my friends, like I do. These are from the period where I felt really quite stuck in my energies and decided to try and reinvent a little, using a book that coaches you to focus on what really matters.

We each must make a commitment to chip away at our self-imposed limitations and take the time to discover the ways we have hidden our talents and covered up our deepest desires." Debbie Ford

Passing Out

I lost you at the point of no return

My fingers entwined with yours I grasped

Perplexing pleasure, joyous years

Lost in one faint-hearted gasp

Too weak to carry on I left

There was nothing to do

Perfection just before me

But life just did not suit

I loved you for a lifetime

I couldn’t carry through

All the pain and sadness

Withered

Heaven could not hold me – it was too bright

Joy and laughter could not exist without a fight

Guns and bullet holes are reality

In that life I simply could not see

Alone for eternity she sat

Waiting

Waiting for him to come back.

But when he arrived, she simply sat.
