Melodramatic
Like rain in the fall
Junkies and addicts
Like we are the drug
Sleeping with static
Out like the law
Blissfully tragic
Like we are in love
We are the drama
Like actors on stages
Playing at manners
Like fad masquerades
We are enigmas
Like books without pages
Living in rainbows
And sleeping in shades
Sad like a symphony
Telling a story
Pensive and poised
Like a cat on a ledge
Brilliant like sparkles
Or stars in their glory
Bold in our risking
Like dancing on edge
We are the drama
Like operas on Sunday
We are the gossip
Like beauty salons
Perfectly scandalous
Secretly perfect
Flawless and lovely
Like naps on the lawn
Mirrored in magic
Like mages in towers
Taken for targets
Like nobles in war
Sweet and fulfilling
Like nectar in flowers
Smooth and unmoving
Like porcelain floors
We are the drama
Like headlines in tabloids
Sliding unseen
Like a hand in a glove
We are the rumors
Like whispers at midnight
We are the envy
Like angels in love
Beautiful. π₯
like angels in love … the end was spectacular …
That’s probably one of my all time favorite lines in a poem. I must have read it a thousand times.
I’m really very honored by your praise. Thank you for the encouragement
No, thank you. Your poetry is really encouraging. You have no idea. Key to survival. π
The eyes discolored
The heart eviscerated
A hollow shell
Of who she used to be
The lies have smothered
The pain has separated
She’s not so well
But she is much like me
I believe in recovering the magic
I believe this pain will start to heal
I can see this storm has done it’s damage
But I believe in you and I always will

I’m sorry, my heart isn’t working right lately and my head is not well. Would you mind enlightening me about the numbers? I have thought them through for days, memorized them, calculated them every way I could imagine. I’m sure it’s something obvious, but I’m quite oblivious and uninspired lately so any help is appreciated.
It looks like a date to me…

I’m glad you took time to stop by and enjoy! A wonderful Monday to you as well π
I agree with a previous comment, the ending was magnificent!
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Endings seem to make or break what I write and I struggle with that more than anything. Thank you!
Beautiful poetry… I just love the last four lines – a great crescendo to your piece. π
Thank you Angela! I’m so glad you stopped by and shared your thoughts π
I hope to see you again some time
Another great poem from that brilliant mind of yours… kudos to you VW! π
Aw thank you Blue! I appreciate your encouragement. It’s always good to see you π
Oh those last two lines – WOW!!!!! Another perfect poem that flows like a song, a chant, a mantra… an affirmation of Truths. I love this, VW!
Thank you so much for taking time to go through my work. I really don’t know much about poetry, so I am sure my flows and rhymes are very simple and song-like. It is really all I know how to do. I am so grateful for your encouragement π
Amazing how productive you are with so much truly excellent poetry — very high quality. This is just amazing.
I love that your poems always have somewthing to say — beyond the ordinary.
Thank you very much. I have had a lot to inspire me this past year. I am not generally so prolific, and in fact I just recently began writing again. I had not in a very long time.
