A page in a story

I often speak in short burst of creativity. From things I see, I feel, and try to recreate those moments into a page; one page from someone's story.

Name: Serpthia

I am an artist, but I have put that aside to write. I am working on my first novel. This blog is to be a prisoner of my creativity. I definitely can hold the pages hostage to my poetry. Be it prose or otherwise, the words bear witness to all I have collected and become a testament to some of my encounters.

The letter.

I wrote you yesterday
Tears shed spiritual blood
Ink blended, faded blue
Beneath weighted wet
Words weary quivered from pen
I miss you seeped from nib
Unreason and I united
Mesmerized momentarily
Lingered sad
Written rhythmic tempo shook
Cursive tenderness never before said
Signed, I love you
Fear seizes
Letter lays, sealed unread

Heya,

With a backyard like the one three posts below, I wouldn't care what anybody thought about my letters. :)

Cheers,

You gave me a giggle; thanks for that. Just so you know (I'm sure you already do), I've never really written a letter like that, but my mind sure can imagine it.

Warmly,
Serp.

Stirring piece. I have written a letter or two like that, poems too. Sometimes it helps just to get it out, even if no one ever hears or reads it.

I miss you seeped from nib

I have written letter like that. I think the last line really makes the poem.
