Writing Wednesday: Poetry

I thought I would do something a little different and post one of my poems.  I call this one Abandoned.

Pen to paper

 Left unread

Only  ink,

Words,

the alabaster page.

Spoken words

Heard only

By the moon

and stars

and the blanket of night.

Arms reach out

Left unfilled

Grasp air

and wind

and empty spaces

Solitude

There’s only me

My breath

My beating heart

Nothing more.
