A simple reason was all she needed

To cover her face, and close her eyes

Sighing, with every ounce of her being

Realizing, this, was her final disguise

Staying well hidden, from the others

Who had intentions, for her, in mind

Men and women, alike, she had trusted

Most of them, she realized, quite unkind

Her only chance, at surviving this plight

Knowing nothing else mattered, you see

She simply would, disappear, in the night

Leaving nothing behind, but a mystery

Let me lead you on a wild escape

Watch the circles turn, and whorl

A wormhole, if you will, my friend

I’ll let the magic fly, unfurl

Where once you stood here with me

Now find yourself far gone

I dare not follow you, oh no

I’ll not take the chance upon

The powerful swirls of light

That reflect in every direction

Chances are, you’re lost for good

So sorry, twas my misdirection

Goodbye, dear one, I’ll see you

Perchance, in another place

Till then, do watch the circles turn

Then disappear, without a trace

 

August Writing Prompt – Wizards and Wormholes – Day 31/31 – This officially marks one full year of Michelle’s writing prompts. She has challenged me every step of the way and for that, I am forever grateful. Thank you, ~M! Love you, my friend  ❤

I Shall Remember, this is Me ~ #poetry

Late hours, rain pouring outside my window

Passing showers, thunder clamoring, and I know

It’s the time, when I find the words so easily

When they rhyme, thoughts coming on, so peacefully

What is it, about the sounds of nature’s wrath?

Why do I sit, instead of seeking out its path?

To wander about, feel the water on my face

I have no doubt, I’d get lost in such a place

Instead I’m here, listening instead of being

How I wish to disappear, the power surely freeing

To get lost, in a world outside this room

At any cost, to do away with all this gloom

But here I stay, my fingers speak of what I see

In every way, I shall remember, this is me

Finding My Way ~ #freeverse

I want to
Disappear
Blend in
With the drops of rain
Landing
Upon a flower’s petal
Slowly
Making my way
Down the stem,
Into the ground
Traveling
Under the earth
Finding
My way
Into the river
Flowing
Into the ocean
Disappearing
In the waves

Fragile Whispers ~ #OctoberWriting #poetry

Autumn leaves fall round me

In a whisper no one can hear

Fragile, the air that surrounds me

I wait for the mist to appear

The winds, swirl like a cyclone

As trees grow naked and stark

They call to me, lyrically, intone

Gathering thoughts, I embark

Toward the forest, bare of cover

Into shadows, as they grow

Wondering what I may discover

I get lost in the leaves below
