Rhythm.

by Poet on the Piano   Sep 4, 2011


[There's no one quite like you]...

When the storm beats against us
and our breathing halts-
as something called fate
takes us into each other's
steady arm,
the enlivened art of love.
I find you bowing
across a rooftop,
among lightning's arrow
that poises our
will to live.

[There's no one quite like you]...

To hold in a world
where hope is drowning,
a lost cancer
forgotten.
But here we lay,
sprawled among
distant traffic signs
that mark our
independence.

For once we can create
a moment truly ours,
unbidden and unbroken.

[There's no one quite like you]...

To love in the sweetest-
fiery-
storm.

It gives us all
to witness in a
condensing sky.

    ^ I think this is a really powerful start for a poem, because its message is really strong and it somehow seems as if the speaker prefered not to say it, there seems to be a bit of doubt and maybe disbelief. I definitely enjoyed it and it made me really curious and captivated me. I'm actually glad that I was able to find this verse more than once in the poem because it underlines its importance.
    I loved the flow of this piece because it was so smooth just like the breeze of the wind or something swaying in the wind, it fit to the poems context really well.
    The message is really strong and I actually enjoyed reading this poem of yours because the emotions are really heartfelt and they seem honest and pure.

    Beautiful poem. Nicely written. It is a good length. The wording is good and imagery is nice. I see nothing worth fixing.

    i gave it a 5/5
