    Confusion

    I've been thinking lately-
    how many lines were for you?
    How many about you?
    Was I thinking about you
    every time I put pen to paper?-
    Was I writing
    what I fear to feel?

    You spoke of beauty-and longing-
    Love letters unsent-
    and promises.

    Did I take it too seriously-
    you said-I love you.

    But I feel it-
    the pain in my stomach-
    Disappointment
    and sorrow.

    Do I want to be Sappho?
    Do I need to be-
    a Muse to a Druid God?

    Because I'm no longer chasing unicorns.
    No longer playing games with Faeries-
    and afraid-
    so afraid.

    No fear in this write.... Do you know God loves humbled pleads ... I read this one knowing I had not read it before.... I have to be honest... I was hoping it wouldn't be as great as the rest... I'm trying to find one I don't see and feel.... Redbloodink

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
