    "Free from me" 7-18-08

    It's everywhere around me
    suspended in the emotions
    of what I used to be

    I feel so cold now,like all my tears are freezing.......
    I think I'm breaking free

    As I lay myself open with words
    my pen becomes a razor
    the pages turn into veins
    and with each and every drop of ink
    I loose a part of me

    A red tide is coming in
    it washes over me
    the salty warmth is such a comfort
    it feels like coming home
    At last I'm breaking free

    Why do I still cling so tight
    when I long to just let go
    am I still just waiting
    for someone to fill the empty left within my soul.......
    another drop,another piece of me

    Blackness closes round
    are those stars or firefly's that I see
    my pen is running dry,my grasp is getting weaker
    at last my past is behind me
    I'm crossing the threshold

    At last I'm free from me.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
