I Need Some Poetry

I need some poetry to soothe my mind,

to take me into a cloud of rhyme.

I need some soul to love me blind,

forgive me my faults, and give me time.

I need some life to help me find,

the beauty in all that is real and mine.

It Could Not Be Detained

I am in bed

but I'm flying,

I am laughing

and I'm crying

My heart is soaring

and affection is pouring,

and the pounding inside

me is roaring.

I am sitting upon the moon

and gazing upon the stars.

I am floating among the clouds

and succumbing at all hours.

I am freshly revived

I've rode away on a stallion.

I've been to the ends of the earth

only to come back to this again.

I've fought seas and storms

and hungered for all things,

and never knew how much

life, happiness brings.

Oh the words finally spilled

there upon the scales,

To be measured and weighed;

To try not to fail.

And the release, so great,

The breaking of a dam,

Because it's let go of what I'll be

and all I ever am.

Oh what, what does one do

When they've had the courage to

Look into the eyes,

of one quite surprised,

and finally admit and say,

"I love you?"

Home

Bring me home to fall

asleep under the sun.

To swing under the tree

to rest just for fun.

Every day is stress

Every life a mess

The memory of home

lingers I confess.
