My Followers And Readers
Poems, poets, poetry, writing, poetry challenges
You sneaked up in my room, my heart missed a beat,
You smiled and I gasped, you threw open your arms and I was in,
While in the que of temple, you called my name and I was all lost,
We walked the length and breadth of the market hand in hand,
You looked in my eyes, promised me a lifetime of togetherness,
I hold your hand tight, widen my eyes to stop pain from pouring,
We smiled like we had eternity in our hands to be together,
You had to go, nothing I could do to stop you though I wanted to,
The moment you started on your journey I turned away to leave,
Not turning behind to wave, I had flood of emotions in my eyes,
This moment still holds my heart and the memory stops my beat.
I will remember the kisses
our lips raw with love
and how you gave me
everything you had
and how I
offered you what was left of
me–Charles Bukowski
And now, for a time, I must find the parts of me I’ve lost, and glue them back into a new whole. Kintsugi, finding beauty in imperfection; the art of precious scars. Perhaps I’ll mend the broken edges with gold this time.

Letting Go Was Never Easy For Me
I Believe In Happily Ever After
And My Heart Hates My Mind Telling It What To Do!
