agapanthus globe

Posted on December 19, 2017November 28, 2020 by saynotoclowns Posted in personal, PoetryTagged Music, Poetry, torn by 2 countries, Travel

Inverted in space,

suspended in the north

with a southerly persuasion,

my heart grown in two,

homes.

Bejewelled moments

I want to break off to keep,

but my weeping hands

sift the fractures in wrong places.

I hold on instead –

ached to this perfect petal,

floated away on familiar

rivered Breeze.

oh Vanessa you make me smile and weep at the same time, I can’t decide which word, or verse or line is the one that makes my heart ache the most, I feel such longing in your words
