Words to caress #poetry
Poetry has to fill me
with the song of a forgotten love,
a warm scent of ocean, his long goodbye.
Poetry has to touch me,
opening a gateway into moments
when a strong yet gentle hand touched my face.
Poetry has to reach inside,
pulling me toward a churning thought
begging to break free of this human shell.
Fill me with remembrance of life,
words to caress a grateful mind
unfinished.
