Two little poems......

ENOUGH ROPE
Feel like Im standing alone,
on a precipace edge,
silent, and cold as bone,
the cliff edge calls to me....
Its cld today, icy fingers trace her out,
while the sun shines on oblivious,
I am making my great shout,
is what I should do obvious?
Once again, Im asking, Im calling,
Im feeling hope so close to taste,
once again Im grasping and falling,
so much love gone to waste.
All things threaten to impound,
crowding for importance,
straining, I can almost hear the sound,
ashamed at my own impotence.
What do I do? I wish, I pray
my heart calls fervently,
I only want to know what to say,
its far from me, evidently.
This is another disjionted day,
where I dwell more in spirit than flesh,
wanting to have my way
urges that are no longer fresh.
So, I'll keep hoping and wanting,
never giving up hope,
My day to day is so daunting,
I hope I dont have enough rope.
THE GOOD FIGHT
So many times led off track,
Oh, you know, as a saviour Im slack,
But Im coming guys, dont worry,
and, for all my faults, Im sorry,
You know I'll get there
So not too much to bear,
til your saviour comes in light
to end that in the soul like night
I come to show the way,
how to ignore the fray
This is my destiny, my right
to fight the good fight.
Both oldies from last year....Not feeling to creative my friends cos I lost a post yesterday and it flattened me......

In light of your loss, you've done well... Oh I hate it when those words dissapear and you just know you can never replace them, that way... as they were... from the heart... *sympathies*
I love your poems, even though I am not a 'strictly ryhming' gal, I did enjoy these, especially the first... reminded me of a long time ago, up on a cliff face myself... but that's another very looooooonnnng story...*lol* and Because i joined BA (Bloggers Anon), I'm only aloud about 15 more minutes before I have to move myself off of here....*chuckle*
Talk again soon,
Lilla ...

Thankyou. Thats the essence - cannot replace it now.... Im starting to gain my confidence and move away from rhyme. Its really scary, to create structure without rhyming!
Glad you got some help for your addiction! No help for me...Sigh
Ash,
Oh, tell me about it. It wasnt really that important a post but I worked hard, uploaded photos(which I had worked on that morning) and it just...Disappeared. It did not make me feel like posting again, hence the old poetry! I know I can recreate it! Yeah, that was a very ordinary subject that when it got to the laptop transformed itself. I love it when pics do that!
