Writerly

I’ve got this thing
I do late at night—


Write


Whatever my heart
Sings—

Even melodies
Of pain for you.


So, forgive me, Love,
The places I go
You can’t come…

But if you did
You’d run—

Be frightened terribly.

And I’d grieve
What you found in of me.

La noche como refugio para escribir, a donde ir para poder sacar lo que hay adentro, @johnjgeddes. Es ella el resguardo de nuestra oscuridad. Seguramente el que se asome a esas oscuridades puede enfrentarse al sentimiento extraño del abismo. El que escribe es un ser que sufre la soledad del espacio, el vacío de la página, pero es su mundo, y en ese mundo él es el creador. Es de noche y te leo!

Como siempre, ¡tales comparaciones poéticas! Poesía ... ¡cómo amo tu poesía!

:-) It was the time when I used to sing whatever my heart says but nowadays very far from the source. I hope the source will call me back .

Thanks...the heart is very resilient, my friend :)

That's why humans are capable of loving each other . With mind only business can be done. With heart , relationship grows.
Pleasure is all mine .

Short lines with a lot of hidden meaning I guess.. feeling is all a writing need to carry
