  • Been on a hiatus for awhile, but I'm back and have the itch to write some poetry.

Unsaid

my eyes are getting heavy
and i'm feeling kinda weak
I think i'm going to shut them now
and try to get some sleep
but if I close my eyes
i'm afraid of what i'll miss
what if I never wake again
to feel your gentle kiss
the way I really feel
I keep bottled up inside
I never shared my thoughts with you
inside my head they hide
 if I never got to tell you
and didn't wake up from my sleep
then the rain that falls from heaven
will be the tears that I will weep

hi travis, i saw ur comment on the "constructive criticism" thread in the poetry forums saying ur just a beginner and u'd love some feedback, also that the death of ur mom sparked ur poetry writing. well, honestly, i love this poem... it's my 1st of urs i've read, and it's VERY good. Isn't it amazing that from something perceived to be bad, ur gift is unleashed... something that was buried there inside u all along, but didn't really take flight until u lost ur mom. You are talented. I will be re

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
