Deep brown you look at me
It's risky, I know
The warning signs are there
I'm blind in my despair
I dive straight in
To the depth of your unknown
I slide straight through the charm
Am I welcome? It's unknown
I flutter my feet and stretch my neck
I fight to stay adrift
The depth is reaching
The fear, it's new
The warning bells keep ringing
The no entry signs stand true
I have maybe a minute no more
I am fair game to your abyss
Yet out of the darkness, an outstretched hand
Clasps around my own
I am warm I am safe
The deep brown is a face
Through the darkness
Slowly the secrets reveal
The trauma, the history
The joy, the passion
The person it beholds
Depth I've not known
Such beauty in its truth
I am captured, I am claimed
My feet no longer flutter
For my heart has taken their place
Deep brown eyes
You lay your gaze upon me
Your depth is your doorway
The entry to your treasure
For your eyes they have captured me
and I've drowned within your soul.

A fine write Clara. Pity it started me singing (always a horror. lol). 'Ohh, reach out, and I'll be there....'
I dunno if it's even a proper song. I'll go back to sleep! heehee.
I find that when I read back over my poems, there is always a sing song vibe to them so I totally understand haha! Thank you for commenting.

Poetic Dan,
Thank you very much! It's most encouraging to receive comments such as these. I'm chuffed to bits actually!

it would be interesting to know your preferred genre of music, as it has left its print in the rhythm of your words, there's a particular flow to them I find myself almost rapping at times!
Loved the use of words, very expressive! keep it up!
Hi G84,
Honestly, I have quite a wide taste in music, ranging from classical to indie to soft rock. I try to add a little rhythm to my words as I favourite poems that flow easily and seem almost sing song! I'm pleased you picked up on it. Thank you as always for your kind words.
