Walking Through the Shadows

by PineappleKing   Mar 24, 2015


You once told me that nature senses,
I have always wondered what you mean by that,
Do the trees sense the lumberjacks coming in the morning,
Do the rocks know when the storms gonna hit,
I don't really care so long as I have you in my arms,
Even though your skin is the perfect shade of porcelain,
And pain has been etched into long lines down my body,
I know that you still love me for who I am not what I am,
Even if the color of my skin is faded pink on those lines.

    Amazing entry here, I second what Maddy has said, you did set a nice tone and it remained throughout the poem. I like how you just took something personal and stuck with the raw emotions behind it. It makes your poem easy to relate to, and follow.

    Well done!

    I love the way you wrote the first few lines, they really set the tone and caught my attention. The personality in this is amazing, so is the honesty.
