Poetry

I don't believe that I have ever posted my poetry and thanks to my love I have had inspiration to write a couple new poems, I though I would share them here.


#1

Night falls over the dry land and brings with it a cooling breeze
although this gentle breeze brings relief
it cannot stem the tide of this overwhelming drought
the heart in my chest yearns for that first drop of rain
at every breeze, every cloud that passes it leaps with hope
praying that the rain comes soon

The breeze has lulled my to my dream and i imagine the days when i never thirsted
in those days the lush green grass covered the rolling hills and joy followed all my steps
these days are not so happy

these days are for the wanderers
for those that mourn and cry
those who search
aimlessly
hoping that someone will save them

while i sit in the dark, waiting for the moon
and the rain



#2

Cozy and warm
curled and comfy
comforted by your arms
here i lie, awake yet dreaming
of the day when my true love is finally here
in my arms
in his arms

peace
so real,
i grasp at the sight of us together as sleep changes to wakefulness
but it is gone
all i see and feel is my empty bed, empty room

empty arms

so far from you, my love
i sleep,

and dream...


I hope you like them, and any feedback would be appreciated.
