AMcQ - Hello Poetry

-Dust-

Darkness plots and plans in hiding.
Shadows whisper undisturbed.
The next room, below the floor;
It cowers behind all we can see.

But light!
A renegade strand of you,
finding but a keyhole
ignites the dark.

Dust dances with your touch...

-Snowstorm-

Rain on me.
Wash away my trouble.
Cleanse my wounds and
break me free of my vacant daze.
The snowstorm of thoughts only
rush past me...
Are my eyes forever fixed on
that place
Where I expect you to appear?
Flow away with the water;
Be gone from my mind!

-Storm-

She draws up the tide
within me
Laden with debris and stone
Barreling green and white,
It heaves against
the inside of my chest.
In time the breakwater weakens
And the storm flows outward from me.

-Holding-

I hold on still
to the breath I drew
when I knew I loved you.

I will exhale only when
your mouth meets mine.

-Pacified-

I am but pacified in your presence;
Relieved by your absence;
Broken by your existence
and in awe at your soul.

-Unfelt-

My eyes sting
with tears not spilt
for the touch of a face
which remains unfelt.

-Beauty-

Before I knew of you
I knew not of beauty,
but of what satisfied the eye
and kept busy the mind.
Now my mind smothers
with memories of days we never spent
and hours we never kissed away.
Beauty is forever redefined
by all that you are.
