dreams

swaying ....................................................................upon
the shadow
of this moon.

the silhouettes
reflect ........................................................................two
as one.

our ...........................................................................stars
are fading with
the peak of a horizon.

for you....................................................................were
just sand
erased by the wind.

nothing left
but the ..................................................................screams
that echo into forever.

I'll be honest...

... I don't know if the formatting trick hurled anything productive, but I have a VERY warm place in my heart for a truly experimental poet. I love coming.............................................................upon something so different it makes me twist my head in wonder.
Here's the weird part.............................................I truly like the poem. Even without dots.
You have a curious mind that bears watching.

the form

for me just served as a kind of negative warning.... a pessimistic "don't follow your dreams" message. a bit depressing but sometimes life is like that. thanks for stopping bye

The pessimism

distraught minds
two in one
should upon each others shoulders display,
some sense of consolation
and
not only sadism relay
Positivity ought to be the aim
Of lovers two,
how I wish
this new ones knew

As Wesley said a change from the normal and very likeable, one thing I would have liked to see was that the words in the right making a vertical statement, then you would have been cooking on Gas.
Otherwise great writing, we will have to wait to see what our Jess thinks of this style ????

i was debating whether or not to write the way i usually do. Changing it up would be nice for me, i'm limiting my writing. i am just stuck on the form :) and i doubt Jess will like this one too much, it is very rough and i'm planning on making some changes. The more i read it the more the improvements that could be made are visible. thank you for reading and commenting :)

damn Girl!

you are killing me here with this beatiful poem of lost soul in a relation that was doomed to fail from the start.
i love this stanza it reflexes the whole complextion of the poem.

"for you....................................................................were
just sand
erased by the wind"
