(Just as a reminder - this is the micropoetry that clutters up my Twitter profile over the course of the month. I stick it here because otherwise I'll use it in the stream of tweets-and-such.)
Hopefully the quality makes up for the quantity (a girl can be overly-optimistic and hope, right?)
Anyhow, these are my four little brain-creatures - see what you think:
8th May
Oh but I did see you.
You never noticed me, did you?
Again and again I saw you.
You never saw me.
11th May
The stars are there -
You can't cover them;
They're still there.
You blocked out your shine.
But I'm light. I'm a star. In the dark.
23rd May
My heart is hammering
for attention.
At least I know,
that it's still beating.
Still here.
23rd May
They gave her to the birds, the moon, love -
They did not know
Her names were more than words.
Names gave her away
But she gave herself

I live for these posts! They all sound so lovely :)
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you *blushes*
DeleteThese are beautiful, and quite a few are sad. About you noticing someone but them never noticing you, or knowing the name and beauty in all things but yourself. I have been writing a lot of poetry lately too.
ReplyDeleteThank you :) And I suppose they are sad... I don't really think about it when I'm writing them. But I do tend to write them when I'm having a bad day... so maybe that's what it is.
DeleteI'd love to read some of your poetry at some point Liv! :)
