Does Anyone Here feel a touch of the muse?
A bit of poetry?

A bit of inspired writing?

Just wondering. It seems to be a wasteland in some ways.

Prove me wrong.

1. How's this?
When you go through something

Horrific

After you emerge

On the other side

Is it really still

You?

I don’t know anymore

Who I am

Someone has taken me away

And left this odd stranger

In my place

I don’t recognize me

Or you for that matter

Where did we go?

Who did we become?

Where is my soul?

Someone did something with it

Or maybe to it

Very odd

My inner landscape is gone

And replaced by this weirdness

4. My dear Perseid...
I'm glad you like it...

I wrote this some time ago, in response to an emotional upheaval that I went through...

2. Yeah, I told her to keep her hands to herself.
B-)

A poem I wrote once after a bad break-up:

A Better Heaven

Alone
With the memory of you
Is a better heaven
Then a night with
Another
And the memory of you
