Morphous poems on Hello Poetry

Natasha Peters Mar 2014

As I fell into the immaculate spiral of being
I found, in light, the stunning sensation of meaning
I lacked only the need to articulate
For I was the Love, the Pain, the Hate.

I was rocked, gently in a morphous womb,
Swayed and cradled by the room
She held and sung me lullabies,
To my fears, I said my goodbyes.

I opened my chest like a double-door,
And absorbed the sunshine, evermore.

a memorial

when i met you, i said goodbye.
it was a process but your soft embrace opened the doors to me.
opened the doors to be closed to the rest.
we are morphous small creatures.
we melted together and then apart.

ok cool

i have been thinking about memorials a lot recently. the endings of eras. the constitutions of hearts and heartbreaks.
a memorial to the closeness once felt with family.
a memorial of a love that was once so strong.

i have already said goodbye to my heart— buried it under raw, cold ground.
it’s ****** pumps slowing down and spurting mellifluously. sweet waif of a heart.
i have already said goodbye to my heart.
but i can’t seem to say goodbye to you.

(are we done//am i done for)
