your face

your face

make me real,
as real as the sun shines on your hardened face.
call my name,
so i know I'm heard.
rid me from all darkness.
that fills my heart with hunger
~
oh hero,
open my eyes,
so i can see your face,
the face of a savour.
the face of the hope that shields me from doubt,
oh hero.
~
I hunger for the happiness you live,
 I hunger for the hope you hold onto even in these dark hours.
~
help me find the sun,
to light my sullen body from disintegrating into the remorse.
~
revive my soul from the wounds that cover my skin.
from the pain that we suffer,
bandage all the scars,
that covers my face.
~
as my tears drip,
they drop.
creating puddles of water that you dry,
they drip all over,
and yet you know how to dry my face.
~

I love your style, I once had a very similar style, except all I've really been doing latley is writing lyrics for my songs but I notice I say things like "oh!" a lot, and I love that expression, keep writing :-)

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.
