Pieces of You

PIECES OF YOU

Sometimes

The words that others sing

Speak for me.

When my words are stilled

And the night is quiet

I listen and hear

The songs resonate

In the cavern of my heart.

So many things I wonder,

So many times to remember,

So many tears to shed,

Yet I know

The patterns of my life

Are spent.

The future is dim

And shrouded,

And time passes.

Yet these words

I must borrow,

Because pieces of you

Are still

Gleaming inside me.

I found the text hard to read on my monitor. I assume you chose this colour to compliment the meaning of the poem.

Wow!

Yes George, I did choose that colour because of the mood of the piece. Sorry it is so difficult to read!

Thank you for the lovely compliment Luna! I hope you keep trying to write your own poetry. Somehow, I still never think anything I write is so marvellous either!
