My Angst

My angst roams in 
The nothingness of 
Shadows long gone

Melancholia becomes
A souvenir 
In my quill

In the sky's silence
I hear the whisper
Of falling blossoms

Butterflies loiter
On quivering leaves
Luminescing 
Tangerine
Honeydew scents

My blood rushes red
Pushing effervescent 
Into pages framed 

A keyboard becomes 
A lifelong friend

My fingers could 
Never get fatigued 
From writing 

Tears become words
I won't know if you have heard


I breathe into a 
constellation born 
In the blue of my quill.

  1. Be still my heart with the poetic stories you tell with your enchanting quill. πŸ’–

    Even when the light shines, shadows can still creep and sneak behind or over us. I have learned to turn and shake hands with mine. My hand is brave, only because it first holds a pen – writing in, over, and through, what would otherwise overpower me.

    You capture the healing power of writing, so beautifully, my soul sharing sister. πŸ™

      3. Good morning! Or should I say, good afternoon! Thank you for sending a sleeping guardian angel to watch over me, or should I say a guardian angel to watch over me while I was sleeping. πŸ˜† She was not sleeping on the job, because I slept very well. Thank you kind, caring, and creative soul sister. πŸ’ž Enjoy your evening.

  2. β€œMy fingers could never get fatigued from writing poetry”, words of a true poet indeed Yassy. The light never burns out from something one loves. β€œTears become words”, so full of emotion in that line because emotion speaks volume and tears are emotions. The title screams emotion, this was beautiful to read.
