The Feelin' Poetic

A Searing Within

thepenciledone — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 15:54:00 +0000

A Searing Within

A distinct point

Felt within

This soul

Far from the true

Physicality

Lost amid

Insubstantial spirit

To only feel

More vibrant

With vitality

For this

Emotion can only

Rise intensely

Increasing the

Movement

Behind

-Alexander Pyles

The Sun’s Gazing

thepenciledone — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 15:39:00 +0000

The Sun’s Gazing

Clear Luminous

The blazing Light

That casts a

Shade upon

The floor

While it can

Be seen alight

Illuminating what

Is to be seen

-Alexander Pyles

Melanie

Melanie

The Brown Eyes that drown

With a soft voice to follow

Carried from a heart

-Alexander Pyles

The Background Feeling

thepenciledone — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:41:00 +0000

The Background Feeling

A residing mote

Pushed farther

Yet it exists

Despite the

Overbearing

Present

To just a

Low hum

Though it still

Give a

Gentle warmth

In the knowledge

Tucked back

-Alexander Pyles

Pains of Confession

thepenciledone — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 19:38:00 +0000

Pains of Confession

The tongue

Curls with its

Lack of spelling

Unwilling to release

Withheld truths

Though the release

Would ease

This burden

As tears fall

From open portals

The tongue loosens

With the flow

And a heart breaks

For a new

Beginning

Shaped from the

Start of

All of the conversation

-Alexander Pyles

Where Moments Are Captured

Where Moments Are Captured

Frozen and

Trapped

The cliché

Runs true

Since memory

Does remember

Every little bit

Down to the last

Breath

Waiting to forget but

That won’t happen

Not yet

-Alexander Pyles

Slight Slight Struggles

thepenciledone — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 19:29:00 +0000

Slight Slight Struggles

That only need

For a moments more

Mention

Allowing for a

Formulation

The tongue still

Trips and struggles

Trying to give

The expression that

Makes it burn

Within

Though it can only

Manage the

Simplest

Basic

Phrase

-Alexander Pyles

Waiting…for a moment

thepenciledone — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 19:54:00 +0000

Waiting…for a moment

…

It only takes

…

3 minutes to get

…

The car yet,

Here I am.

…

Standing on a curb

Nowhere to go.

…

Still no hum of an

Engine yet.

…

I’ll still wait.

…

-Alexander Pyles

A Beat Heart

thepenciledone — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:39:00 +0000

A Beat Heart

Slight Tapping

Swift but

Quiet

While the breaths

Exhale to falling lightly

Upon the wind’s easy

Limbs

The light was fading

Beyond the edge of

Night

While a caress could

Still be felt

Against a cool cheek

Moved with slow discretion

The hand drops to

His side and lips

Meet for that

Temporary time

Just so there can be

Love spoken through

An action

Instead of only word

Displacing the bodies

With only souls in

Communion

-Alexander Pyles

What is this?

thepenciledone — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 19:34:00 +0000

What is this?

A question

Has the

Form of

A truth

Yet it is

Asking for

This Moment

Only to be

Met

With

Silence

-Alexander Pyles
