Poets live
in moments
reach
beyond earthly lifetimes
breathe
in rhythms
dance
in words
sing
with the moon
lay
with the stars
*
Poets burn
with intensity
flame
with emotion
travel
where hearts call our name
dream
in colors undiscovered
*
Poets live
as others
only fantasize

Ph- Dreamwalker by Samantha Goss
In my mirror
hidden truths
of a woman’s heart
lie beneath
a facade
I show
to those
who cannot understand

Who really am I?
What makes
my blood flow
desires burn
passion spill
into the streets I walk?
*
One day
my courage opened
a forbidden door
the flame inside me
blazed
allowed at last
to burn
in ways it always yearned
fear ran away with the wind
confidence held my hand
and the real me
lived her life
and inked her pages
with the breaths
of her heart and soul
never regretting
one minute of it

Ph-Me
Lay me down
strip bare
outside facades
dig deep
to the center
of who I am
uncover the soul
who reveals
to no one
except those
who appreciate
the poetry
of me

Running wild
inside this skin
abandon of a poet
untethered thoughts
dreams gritty, brazen
fearless heart
brassy, unafraid
she
warrior of her own soul

Poet’s pen
elixir
to my soul
saving grace
of tattered heart
vessel
purging unwanted emotions
treasure chest
coveting precious moments
release and inhale
at the same time
sanity
in a world of ink
