DarkPoetry -|- cre -|- there are no flowers

there are no flowers

I tried to write
in rage
in blood
to scratch my hatred
and find something lovely in it still
I tried to write
in love
in the sweetness of hope
and friendly innocence
the warmth of a hug under cold stars
I tried to write
in passion
hot breath on tender skin
souls melted
and the beauty of edges blurred
I tried to write
in sadness
tears smearing my world
an ache
where a heart used to be

I tried to write
in death
in the coldness of grey stone
and earth recently disturbed
I have left no mark
time releases what loss engraved
and the only voice left
is a wandering desolate wind.

There are no flowers.

I feel this way often. I get to points where nothing will come out...and when it does, it sounds like a child that's just started to write. And I curse at myself, and I yell at all of you talented folk whom it seems to come so easy to all of the time.

But I guess I'm just trying to make myself feel bad because i know everyone has there times when everything seems meaningless. But it just takes awhile to realize, that poetry does effect people.

Some would say that if you leave without leaving a mark, it is a gift to the world as a whole. Do you want to give, or give to receive? To be a rose, a gardener or a princess on a bed of roses(ohh no flowers hehe) Enjoyed. Tiger

Some times it really feels like this doesn't it. You pour everything and anything out...to the avail of nothing. You've not moved earth nore redirected the wind Cre...but you have moved hearts and affected perceptions. This I know. ~JMDW~
