I used to write poetry all the time. These days I've modified slightly and the medium of choice is song lyrics; however, last weekend I typed up a batch of old poems that had been sitting around and I just discovered a file of poems on the computer that I'd forgotten about. So for the next couple of days (more or less, depending on how inspired I feel), Randomness is going to have a little poetry fest from my archives. Enjoy!

Burswood

A gentle, quiet music flows through the room
As hands caress emotion from ivory keys
Stirring longings in my waiting heart
And as a muted melancholy settles in the song
Thus the saddened mood settles in my being
For everywhere I walk through foreign, unfamiliar scenery
Yet subtle hints of you continue to appear
Bidding treasured memories of mine come forth
And images materialize like wisps of clouds or dreams
Reminding when no reminder is needed
The great extents to which I miss you
For in every moment your presence I long for
With a strength I could have never anticipated
And when at last our lengthy separation is over
I want to run into your waiting arms.

Murder

Dreams are more precious than gold,
More fragile than glass,
More cherished than life.
To destroy a dream
Is to commit murder.

Put away your knife.

wishful thinking

to close my eyes
and appear in your arms

to open my eyes
and gaze into yours
