Ok, so I've been saying for a long time that I was going to post on the blog more than I have been in my last post. As you can see, I've been slacking in that promise because, well, I suck at motivating myself. But that's going to change--I think--so, just nod your heads and just say, "YES! We can Change!" Please excuse the terrible Obama reference.
So, to get down to business of why I've just out of nowhere decided to make a blog posting. I wrote a sonnet very recently that sort of reveals a lot of "feelings" (I couldn't think of a better word, so I just went with the ole generic one) about someone that I wish I could have got to know more and establish more of a relationship with (a missed connection you could say).
So, here it goes. Please feel privileged to read this because I hardly let anyone read my poetry, not to mention do I ever post it for public reading. I hope you enjoy, and please don't be afraid to make comments (constructive or deconstructive) on here or on my Facebook since most of everyone who will be reading this (if anyone) will be people who followed the link from my FB status. With that said, enjoy!
And no I will not say who the poem is about.
Black and Spotlight
Bare me the time to confess
To you that upon first sight
All I hoped was to impress
You by being your spotlight.
Your eyes capture the beauty
That you surround yourself with.
Through Black and White, I can see
That spark within you, that depth.
For all that's sound, you're its beat.
You move, it moves. You're smile's
The chorus that always bleats
On, on, and on for miles.
Now here I stand, your eyes upon mine.
I wonder if you know why I shine.
For those who find this sappy, I apologize. But it is a sonnet folks, and this is only my third revision of it, so it is more than likely going to go through more changes.
Adios for now. We'll talk more, soon?
