Poem Commentary

Change is hard and letting go is hell,,,especially if it happens when you are in a very positive state...You end up stunned and blind-sided,,,Some relationships never end...they are circular...so they leave no room for healing...they are an addiction you never get over...or maybe...until next time!

The Tempest

Tempestuous....
       I fall in...    
              When I see your eyes...
                      knowing we can go no lower...
And it surely must be our time to rise.

I am hungry...
       A hunger alive with only you.
               I feel a raging storm of electricity...
Then like a frightened child, unsure what I should do...

I am starving...
       My soul devours you whole...
               Such a strong craving...so hard to let go....
And I want us to ride off into forever...sweet and slow.

Weeping...Sweeping...me away
       I fall and get lost and I cannot play...
               I bend...Do not break or fall away...
From this fire that burns the heart like a sacred tempest

It would be so sweet to simply get rest...
       and feel like I could breathe...
                You took my oxygen away...
Funny...I am worse off...When you come my way.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
