Unfold Me

#

By KomalPublished about a year ago 1 min read

There will always be those

who DISRUPT and DISMANTLE,

TWIST and ENTANGLE, silence and strangle each syllable spoken,

each door left unopen, each footstep that falls,

each laundered line written,

locked secrets well hidden

deeper than the river’s edge.

. . .

There will always be SHADOWS and DARKNESS,

SUTURES and STITCHES,

soft voices, loud noises, reams of PAPER and INK,

and enough TRUTH and LIES

that will either RISE or SINK

no matter what any of us may THINK.

And what remains is the BEAUTY of POETRY

as each word UNRAVELS and UNFOLDS me.

Tell me, what makes your poetry tick?

About the Creator

Komal

I write poems and stories that hit the feels.

When I’m not lost in my own plots, I’m either daydreaming about the next big idea or just winging life with a grin.

    Love the words, love the formatting, love the way you end this with a thought-provoking question. ⚡💙⚡

  • I liked the use of contrasting words. I like my poetry to be fun or tell a story… probably not really poetry at all 🤔🙃.

    Simply beautiful piece!

  • Esala Gunathilake12 months ago

    This piece, you have ever made to the world of poets. Foa, thanks for that. Inspiration gained by life and nature is my poetry trick.

  • My poetry is all emotion and honesty. One of the best poems about poetry I’ve read

    Your poem captures the enduring power of poetry in the face of life's complexities and challenges. PS : FYI Komal pen won't work in space so take a pencil instead

    This was excellent! The unique formatting made it a treat for the eyes as much as the mind. I really liked how visceral the language felt when written in all caps and italicized.

    Wooooooooahhhhh! ❤️✨😊 This is powerfully inspiring. I would say the constant emotion in my soul (mind, will, emotions) is what makes my poetry tick. Great question!
