Shadows

POEETERNAL PoeEternal, poetry, Writing May 19, 2019

I don’t have alot to sustain me
I guess that it probably shows
I always prefer the shadows
This is the cons and pros

You can find me under a tree
Writing a bit of prose
I am a living zombie
Trying not to decompose

I live near the sea
I love how the wind blows
I listen gently
And think of him I suppose

“I am a living zombie trying not to decompose”…..man that line hit me hard. I relate to that more than I want to admit to myself. I love your writing. Thank you for sharing it!

THANKS FOR 10K! Feeling pretty groovy over the fact that my #blog has now had over TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE visit it (over 23k times) to read my #poetry (scroll left for WordPress chart). What life is this? Well I'm dropping #rhyme nearly on the daily and putting out some of my best work yet. I bleed ink. Thank you! I love you. ✌ #10k #blogger #writer #poetess #gratitude #holyshit #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity #instagram

Hazel eyes, lip stain, and natural rosey cheeks is how you'll find me on most days... (and probably bags under my eyes too). Dropping #rhymes on my blog nearly on the daily (link in bio) ✌ I take my heart and I plant it in a garden I bury it with love and grant another pardon I cover it with grass so it will never be his burden I would have given it to him but he found a better bargain The seed might find the light but now I'm not so certain Several years may pass and I'll still be pulling weeds Making sure he finds exactly what he needs And if he ever asks, I'll help him with some leads The only thing I ask is happiness succeeds And so I plant his rhyme in the better parts of me ~FIN~ © Delia Ross. 2019 #amwriting #poetry #poems #lovepoems

I told the doctor I don’t want to be issued Prozac He guarantees, it’ll help the things, my future lack I told the pharmacist, I had things I needed to get off my back And with a smile, or a devil’s grin, I reached and took my sack I told my friends, I’m sleeping well, though an insomniac I tell them still, I’m up the hill, but I can’t relax I take a knee, and pray to God, that was the climax Got depression and anxiety yelling back at me to face the facts ~FIN~ © Delia Ross. 2019 #amwriting #poetry #depression #anxiety #insomnia #prozac #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #instagram #depressionawareness #darkangel #goth #gothgirl #fallenangel #depressed #darkness #isolation

Maybe my regret is a thorn in a rose Or maybe second chance is the hand that he shows Down here in his chambers, are the darkest meadows And where we both are heading, only he knows I will spiral downward, until he breaks my resolve The further from ascension, the more that we evolve When pressured for a reason, the question goes unsolved Leave guessing in the season, where doubt cannot unthaw Though careful we are treading, through the meddling, of never giving up And heavy was the worry where our picture could not develop And leaning on our shoulder was the ear of the devil And facing in the mirror was an angel who fell from heaven With eyes that burn for him with loyalty Though she’ll never know it, his heart is her property Both married to the darkness as if it’s the only deity Yet somewhere in the fall, she had found her divinity ~FIN~ © Delia Ross. 2019 #amwriting #poetry #rhymes #love #darkness #devotion #mistakes #forgiveness #poetrycommunity #writing #writer #author #writerscommunity #writingcommunity #growth #depression #sadness #rhyme #poeeternal

He gnawed on my soul until all that was left was a core of longing. And the seeds within were filled with his haunting. And like an apple being pulled by his gravity, I kept falling. He will take bites without ever warning. © Delia Ross. 2019 #poeeternal
