The stars come out
like lamplights in the silken dark
croonings of birds fade
nests lull their trembling feathers
I sit captive in
an angst that entwines my heart
tears dissolve into
darkening hues of the night
drenching my bossomed lattice.

I find it hard
to bleed my inner feelings
tissues close to hand
my tears write words i fear
fortunately illegible
~~~
tis early morning
all in bed tucked up warm
my mind set free
the silence and me are one
I reflect on yesterday
~~~
poetry i wrote
a cold eventful walk
a little egret
reflecting done fresh new day
already pen to paper
~~~
the stars their fading
no its tears that cloud my eyes
poetry precious
as the hand from which words flows
inciting fiction feelings
~~~
words flow from my heart
as blood runs through my veins
poetry wrote well
inadvertent transfusions
inspirations from a friend
~~~
Take care Yasmin, your words scare me!

You write with great feeling its difficult not to read truth into what you write. It makes me feel so inadequate, until I hear those magic words, “It’s fiction”, however to me it’s like watching a sad, movie, even a happy one, both can bring an emotional tear to my eye. But, not for one second am I suggesting that you refrain from expressing yourself in anyway you want, no, just pointing out how powerful your words are, and how they an affect me personally. I find inspiration in all your work, and wait with baited breath for your next..

Moonlit- starlit nights bring out the best of your emotions. Nights do have a tendency to bring out all the sadness that exists in the nooks and corners of our hearts. The nice thing is the morning rays bring hope with them. Profound and beautiful lines, Yassy.
