Poem for Friday
My mind betrays my body
My thoughts lead me
To places I dare not go
Forbidden longing.
The pain and hurt
Still fresh and raw
Bruises dark and angry
Fade at caresses past.
My heart ever longing
For love and passion
My body prays for escape
From anguish and disappointment.
What a fantastic poem. I loved it.
Thank you, Jayde.
Reading your wonderful poem, brought this to mind:
My mind gathers, reminds
As my body weakens, reclines
How I wish to lose my mind
Be gone! For you’re not kind
Hope you’re fully recovered from that leg surgery – or, am I behind time.
Peace, Eric
Yours is wonderful.
I’m on the downhill side of this. Two weeks left to ago then hopefully back to wearing a full pair of shoes that match. I find out on the 12th. So cross your fingers for me.
Susan, this is a great poem. x
