Daily Prompt: Overwhelming

Afraid to touch
afraid to see
So beautiful
so vibrant
so full of life is she
To hear her voice
is to hear no more
So exquisite
so divine
so delicate a tone
Beauty so deep
beauty so raw
nothing compares

via Daily Prompt: Invitation

There it sits,
beckoning me.
White, pure, pristine.
Golden secrets swirling inside
coming together to reveal
when magic appears.
Dare I open it?
Dare I see
if the invitation is really
for me?

Never Be Far

On January 13, 2017 By HeidiIn Poetry2 Comments

Tea for two

Apples are blue

When the night sky alights

I think of you

Come to me

When daisies can see

I will give to you

Kisses so sweet

Lie with me

On angel’s wings

Promises of true love

I will sing

Listen if you must

To serpent’s lies

See the truth

Within my eyes

Tea for two

Apples are blue

Wish upon a star

I will never be far

Someday
I will walk
where no one has walked before
Someday
I will keep that promise
given so long ago
Someday
when the rain stops
and the sun shines bright
I will smile again
Someday
I will tell you how I feel
what you mean to me
why I need you
why you need me
Someday….

The notes run through my head
an endless loop
the melody haunting
reminding me of days long past
days that will never be
forgotten.

via Daily Prompt: Uneven

Ever since you entered my life
the world has tilted precariously
the ground uneven
beneath my feet
If this is what love is
a chaos of emotions
lifting me then dropping suddenly
only to be lifted once again
leaving me breathless, disoriented
I am yours.

via Daily Prompt: Tempted

It’s a daily struggle
one not easily won
but battle on
I must.
I see you there
innocent
seemingly aloof.
My willpower is strong
I should not be tempted
by one such as you
yet tempted I am.
Begone vile creature
before my will fails
and I reach for that
which my growing waistline details.

Daily Prompt: Crossing

via Daily Prompt: Crossing

The days go by
one by one
there seems no end
to this torment
and scorn
When lines are crossed
and bridges burned
there is no turning back
no redemption earned
The chasm before me
is wide and deep
Desert lay behind
green and lush before me sweeps
Crossing into the unknown
is scary at best
One last bridge
one foot forward
one last hope
for a life worth living.
