You Have So Much…

Its potency is fully masked
In camouflage of black and blue,
Despair will hide it lovingly
To keep the light from shining through.

It haunts our thoughts and feeds the ground
That hungers for its fertile seed
And changes from its crawling form
To wings the moment you succeed.

  1. I like this one 🙂

    1. Heck, 1 out of 69 is still better than none! 😛

      1. Don’t get me wrong, I like a heck of a lot of your work..but this is one of the ones that hit me squarely in the imagination 🙂

        1. Hehe I was just teasing…better to be hit squarely in the imagination than below the belt where it hurts. 😛

          1. You’re right, that’s not the most pleasant of experiences…

  2. Love the use of language and rhythm.

    1. *Head grows too big for body*

  3. This is fantastic. You are one of the best writers I have found here. If you have, or when you do, become published, I will promote you slavishly.

    1. Hehe glad you liked it. If I do become published, it will only be well after you as I believe your short stories would be very marketable in the rhyme-adverse landscape of the literary world today. I think every writer has a style in which his/her voice is the clearest, and I think writing stories would be a great niche for you and could be your calling card.

      1. That’s what I truly want to do. It’s just a matter of volition. I really appreciate the encouragement.

        1. I think you will do well if you keep pushing forward. 🙂
