A silent vigil

CATEGORY

just different

On bended knee,
Hands clasped together,
Nestled close to the chest,
Heart's rhythm felt,
Head bowed,
Eyes shut.

The silence,
Weighing a ton.

The heart speaks
To its Creator.
Words circulate
As the mind collects
Conversations
Meant for God's ear.

A silent vigil commencing
As the pounding of the chest
Deepens.

Without a peep,
Nor sound escaping,
A conversation ends
With Amen.

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY poetunleashed

On bended knee,
Hands clasped together,
Nestled close to the chest,
Heart's rhythm felt,
Head bowed,
Eyes shut.

The silence,
Weighing a ton.

The heart speaks
To its Creator.
Words circulate
As the mind collects
Conversations
Meant for God's ear.

A silent vigil commencing
As the pounding of the chest
Deepens.

Without a peep,
Nor sound escaping,
A conversation ends
With Amen.

beneath the scars

We bear scars
From wounds
Inflicted,
But which remain
Unseen,
Yet shaping
Every step,
Every interaction.

We bear scars
That lay dormant,
Becoming infections,
Whose healing
Becomes a herculean task.

We bear scars.
We walk
With gaping wounds
Which the world never sees.
