Hiding Away The Heart Shadows
The Cleansing Of The Mist
The things I wonder when I’m restless - desperately needing to unwind
And the games my head plays with me, quietly inside my mind
If I curled up on my pillow, with my eyes closed up, real tight
Could I disappear in secret, into the silence of the night
Just dissolve into the darkness, like the shadows lost in shade
Or a raindrop on the ocean, be undone and unafraid
Could I steal away in twilight, becoming weightless, like the mist
Clinging to the eve of midnight, just awaiting to be kissed
By the dawn of new beginnings and rebirth of new starts
Refreshed and finally willing, to leave behind the shadows in my heart ❤️

Very nice, gorgeous imagery. You drew me in right from the beginning.
Lovely poem with beautiful imagery.
Beautifully written!
Wow, I really got into this, I read and re-read it. Something about how you put it together was perfect.
I really loved this poem.
So sincere. This is a wonderful poetic display of emotional transparency.
I just love the way you write, such gorgeous language. This really spoke to me, especially these lines, 'If I curled up on my pillow, with my eyes closed up real tight, Could I disappear in secret, into the silence of the night'. Great work :)
Beautiful piece.
