An Undelivered Poem

A Poem by Colton Warr

I feel unsettled and missing

Like a nomad traveling through an unknown land

Nettled and Reminiscing 

I once knew every small texture of your hand

I feel confused and paranoid

Like a man who had just committed murder

Fused and Destroyed 

My mind does everything to preserve her 

I feel soulless and guilty

Like the Grim Reaper who comes to take 

Boneless and Filthy 

I am broken in ways I did not know I could break 

I feel stressed and disturbed 

Like a student before the final exam

Oppressed and Perturbed 

I think I have given you all that I am

*****

Could I ask?

Do you sometimes feel as if you’re going through the motions?

Drink from my flask

I beg to again be lost within your ocean

Could I touch?

Do you sometimes reach out for my face with your hand?

Your hearts clutch

Shackle me in, never again to disband 

Could I kiss?

Do you sometimes still gaze into nothing, wishing it was me?

I guess I miss,

Whenever you were the only thing I would ever see

Amazing poetry my friend. You brought me in and held me to the last words.
"Could I touch?
Do you sometimes reach out for my face with your hand?
Your hearts clutch
Shackle me in, never again to disband
Could I kiss?"
The above lines are amazing. I could write a complete poem from these words and emotion. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

Thank you so much, Coyote! I'm happy you enjoyed this poem! Your words are always so kind and encouraging, I deeply appreciate that! The emotion was strong in this one for me and these words cut deep. If you remember my poem "She is..." This is about the same girl, we are no longer together and it is from my doing. Even after all that she is still my muse though, isn't that interesting? Thanks for stopping by and giving this a read, my friend!

As I read your poem in the quiet of my morning, I heard the words speaking to me as well. Now, before you label me as a looney, this has happened before on occasion when confronted with a particularly intriguing product. I have read it three times and I am fascinated by this picture that you have painted.

[Colton Warr]

This is really good. I love the emotion and how you can feel the sadness in your words. At the same time though, it was hopeful, and I really like the style in which you wrote this. The words flow well together and they have a nice sort of rhythm, Great job, keep writing!

[Colton Warr]

Thank you so much, Shea! I appreciate the kind words! You are too sweet! I'm glad you enjoyed this piece and were able to feel the emotion within each word. This was a very emotional and deep cutting piece for me so I'm glad you were able to feel the same reading it. There is a dash of hope in there, as I have a small hope about the situation. Thanks for stopping by and giving this a read! I appreciate your support!

Thank you very much, Jacklyn! I appreciate your kind words! You are too sweet! I'm glad you enjoyed the piece and were able to feel the emotion within the words. I'm glad you were able to hear it too. I like that you described it like that, you could hear the emotion. Like when you read it out loud you could feel something in the words as you read them.
