    White Sheets

    Hello,

    Feel free to critisize whatever is written. This is just personal poetry that I would like to share with other people.

    White Sheets

    Flipping on those white sheets
    I see my face in the mirror
    Lines of age lines of beauty
    Threatened by my heart beats

    So I speak to the darkness amidst the light
    With a voice I cannot hear
    My tongue muted by the shock of things
    And my eyes blinded by the dreary sight

    And I scribble on those white sheets
    With a pen I found rolling on the floor
    The storm plundered through my ears
    Threatened by my heart beats

    So in the night I try to persuade the darkness’s will
    To grant my spirit’s aspiration to devour
    What has limited my will to write
    On those sheets that were not mine to fill

    But lying on those white sheets
    I realize my weakness and my strength
    My shadow in the mirror gazes at me as though
    It is still threatened by my heart beats

    And I rise to fill the blank space
    That was left by my fear of fate
    I begin to scribe my memories with an invisible ink
    With wishes and dreams made of silk and lace

    I knew I owned those white sheets
    So as I try to fill the gaps with bits of my soul
    I realize the loss of will and the loss of control
    And surrender my fate to my silenced heart beats

    For you see what I thought was mine… was not.


    Cheers,
    M
