Just Breathe

Who am I today? Why does it feel like I have no clue? What do I need to validate myself in someone else's eyes? So hard to believe in myself? Why can't I just look myself in the mirror say I love you to myself and not need to hear it from someone else's lies? When was last time that I cried because they were tears of joy not sadness?

(Poetry) Lost in the Rain

Lost in the Rain Rain on my cheek Hiding falling tears Autumn in New York Leaves crunch softly Cushioning my footfall The moon hides in clouds Slate blue black skies Cool air sends shivers Hugging myself walking My destination unknowable My heart torn in confusion A million directions to go Yet only one can truly prevail My fingertips feel numb Lost in thought and tears Where does my heart belong The lifelong question beckons Never offering any reply Rain washing thought away Tears purging the surface Perhaps the truth beneath A season of falling leaves Winter kiss and cold loss Nothing to warm the heart Hold fast to a shard of light The tiniest bit of courage That is the reflection of hope ©Angel Hart 2012

Autumns Kiss (Poetry)

Autumns Kiss The leaves are weeping color Summer waning to flame trees Squirrels scamper hoarding nuts Hot chocolate and warm cider Thoughts of turkey and eggnog Cool breeze bites your cheeks Last lone rose of summer fades Green grass pales to yellow Kicking crisp piles of falling leaves Gathering wood for roaring fires Cool nights and warm snuggles Harvest wine on lovers’ lips Taste the change on the air Autumn fairies herald in whimsy Scurrying leaves about your feet Giggling a darting out of sight Playful days and cozy nights Autumn awakens the child inside Moving the heart to yesteryear Memories and new ones to explore ©2012 Poetic Angel Wednesday, September 26, 2012

Summer Heat (Poetry)

Summer Heat I savor the languid heat of summer Easing into my senses ardently The barest breath of air to tease Rising up to rustle across my cheek The split of lightning breaking night Across a sultry acrid summer sky Streaking it in pale salmon and silver Electric snap on the air before the rain Green new grass wilting from full drops Falling from voluminous heavy clouds A perfect night for limbs intertwined For secret places undiscovered unbidden Until the first pink of dawn emerges Breathless staring into strangers eyes Ablaze of summer mingled with passion Allowing a heat that holds no boundaries Scorched by unrelenting crimson fire flamed Point of no return without any reservations Cooling down in the aftermath, hours waning A blanket of raindrops over satiated passion Bring on the heated days of summer dreams Aching to dance among her thunderstorms (C)2012 Poetic Angel

Poetry

I tremble deep inside because I love you Without explanation, rhyme or reason Quietly accepting that you burn my heart Yet I am nothing to you but a passing face Eyes that long for you to want them as yours I am but a fool daring to feel for you this way Sadly I know hot how to stop myself from this Lost to the vow my heart has pledged to you ~Poetic Angel~

Haiku

The sun rises up
Across my sleeping eyelids
Melting away dreams

Down The Rabbit Hole {Poetry}

Down The Rabbit Hole

Down the rabbit hole
Without the exit sign
Seeing visions spiral
Fall across my mind
Touching nothing
Feeling the blackness
Endless rabbit hole
Twists and turns flow
Falling until I am spent
Trying to claw back up
Pushed down by the dark
The ghosts that haunt
Spirit broken empty
Vague like a cloud
Not sure of its own rain
Waiting for someone
A life line to predict it
To tell it to rain to fall
The sun in the distance
A way out of the hole
To tired to climb up
Free fall in darkness
Where is the light
Dreams forgotten
Engulfed and alone
Down the rabbit hole
