We weave of ourselves

Jagged lines, disconnected

From darkened backgrounds

For Me ~ #poetry

#poetry, created, dorindaduclos.com, for me, length, Lines, Night Owl Poetry, poems, verse, writing


There is no length, for which I write

I stop when everything feels right

It may only be a verse, of three small lines

Or perhaps I will stretch it, to seven or nine

But when the words fall into place, you see

The poem I’ve created, is really for me

I have never known

where to draw the line

my fantasies, bleed out

from the end of a pencil

onto blank pages

where thoughts spill

without ink, splotches

of words, erased, replaced

then smeared again

by the brush of my hand

or is it my vision, blurring

the existing lines, a verse

left unattended because

I have fallen asleep

into yet another dream

Draw Me In ~ #poetry #freeverse

I want to draw you

Memorize the contours of your face

Sketch the intricate lines of your eyes

Your nose, your mouth, that jawline

That draws me in, every time I’m near you

I want to erase the worry,

And replace the doubt

With the delicate strokes of my hands
