Default Works From The Heart - 06-20-2011, 05:12 AM

I've been writing poems, short stories, and small nonsense for a very long time now. Writing has always been very important to me, and I'd like to share some of my stuff with everyone here. I'll start out with two poems and post some more if anyone is interested. Thanks for taking time to read

Currently Untitled

I could feel summer in my skin
as the never ending sky above
turned a vivid blue that I had never noticed before
water rushed out of my ears
and rays of sun shined out of my eyes
making them bright and focused
my attention was direct
towards a target of many weeks
your arms held me like sand
and the violent waves crashing down on my legs
could not have made me feel anymore alive
it was after the liquid had dispersed and the light dimmed
I looked back at the location
I remember myself laughing in your arms
and your sparkling eyes cradling a feeling that I did not regonize
my skin will never hold summer again


(Note: The no grammar is for a reason. I'd like the reader to follow it in the flow that they find most comfortable.)


Circumstances

So this is my battle.
These are my circumstances.
I am letting go of the impairing grip of disguise.
I am feeling the thrill of sensations in all.

This is my struggle.
These are my pursuits.
Breathing in change is inevitable.
Choice is resonating.

In my ears,
now clear and open..
Vitality is calling.
Everything is changing.
But through the confuson

I blossom.
And so I took towards the future.
I look away from the past.

I like your freeverse poetry a lot. You personified naturally occurring events pretty well, and I especially liked the:

"water rushed out of my ears
and rays of sun shined out of my eyes"

Invokes very vivid mental images and your point that you're lost in the bliss of summer is nailed home. Nice writing, do post some more some time.
