Those Places

My mind goes back.

Memory pays respect to those places

My heart goes back.

Melancholy carries on to those places

My soul speaks in tongues .

They open the gateways of shadow to those places

 

Kneeling

Before them in those places

They speak so clear

So clear I can hear

I can understand

I can understand their foreign tongue

In their foreign land

The land for which I long

The land from which I belong

 

My words do not come forward for I can not speak

I visit those places

The places from which we come

I wish to be home

My heart

My soul

MySelf

I

I shall say farewell to those places again

For now

But not for long

  1. You are becoming hauntingly close to the place that has no rules. Each time I find myself almost there, for some reason I become terrified. I wonder why? These last two poems resonated with me and shook me! I wonder why, again. . . Beautiful words, Enreal. . . I relate to these on a deeper side than I usually like to go to. Thanks for creating and sharing. PLL, C.

    • Cordie~ your words give me a moments pause… for I know of the feelings of which you speak. I too chose tohide… I hide within my words… thank you for sharing yourself… it enriches these pages more than I can myself. Namaste

  2. Dear enreal, you have a gift to catch movements and change. You created these esoteric places with subtle words….Thank you Happy Blogging
