RECONSIDER

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

If the stars
That observe
See the power
Of my hurt
Or the tears
In my eyes
Fall downward
From the skies

Reconsider.

As I stand
All alone
And every breath
It is cold
Each beat
Of my heart
No words
How to start.

Reconsider.

The night
Falls astray
In shadows
Of yesterday
When a kiss
To my lips
Sent shivers
Pure bliss.

Reconsider.

    Norman I love the structure of this poem allowing the title and main meaning to be expressed over and over to emphasize its meaning. In the same manner rhyme is sparingly used to emphasize certain elements. Clever an nicely done a fave

    A fine write N. It's high time we reconsidered if we should still wait at this bus stop! lol.

  • Lorenz

    A fav after careful consideration...

    Norman, I felt the loneliness in this one. Sometimes one word really is all that remains when you have already said everything else. Well expressed, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
