RE: Someone - To Like or To Be Liked
Looking at you the whole night, I wave
But, it is cloudy and crescent
It is cool up here, no better view
But you at the window
The universe has united us
No one could harm
As the wind dragg the cloud away
The punisher will have long gone
Cause I am the one with a thousand faces
The thunder no longer scares me, but being a friend
Give me light to see you standing by the window
In the darkest stormy night
On the day I come down
We will have time to sit by the lake
Talking about the book we haven't read
Sorry, @wakeupkitty I am not that good at writing in English, because poetry is an absolute different way. Choosing the right diction even when I write in my mother tongue would be difficult.
Have a good day
But... this is good! I am amazed. I agree with you poetry is a complete different way of writing.
It's hard to find the right words to discribe what you inyend to say.
Symbolism can work but so does saying it straight forward.
At the start if May I bought in a secindhand shop a series if books with texts of Gerard Reve.
Some are only 5 lines. A kind if puzzles for the brain with a sence of humour, sadness, frustratiin, a bit of anger.
I like the part of the punisher and "the one with the thousand faces"
The last sencente... "read" you could change in "opened yet".
You should save it and so will I. I'll leave the candle burn just like in the dong of Rob de Nijs.
I wonder what the lake will look like if it reflects the moon.
Keep writing!
🍀❤️
I guess I wrote some long ago on steemit, I will check it, I hope I can find it somewhere...
I found it, you may like to see an old memory of mine here @wakeupkitty
But, those are far from good to read, LOL
