{November 16, 2009}   Prose & Poetry

 

For every prose
I write that’s bright
I seem to write one dark

Not for fancy
fun or flight
Not simply on a lark

I feel things deep
whether up or down
It all flows through my mind

And whether I’m in
the sun or shade
I must tell you what I find

So as my heart
rocks to and fro
I simply write what I see

Not just for you
but for me too
Because writing… it sets me free

And just because
I put to word
My feelings in a moment

Doesn’t mean
that’s who I am
It’s but a sliver I present

So beware! Don’t
take it too personal
Don’t take it all to heart

Its just a fleeting glimpse
into my soul…
…its just a tiny part

Its just a fleeting glimpse
of all I feel…
…its just a tiny part

It’s a little strange that I’m ‘all heart’ when I am a poet and when I write otherwise, things are so about what I think. Either ways, it’s a new high to start blogging. Apart from all the regular reasons, it just feels great to have some space that I can call my own! It feels like building a home where I can be me, where friends and family can visit, a place where I can opine about everything under the sun (oh! There’ll be a LOT of that) and in general just goof around. So, keep coming back. The journey has only begun!
