Tell Me

A Poem by Neville

Tell Me

 

Tell me

Are you

Frightened

Darling

Pray tell me

What it is

You’re thinking

Tell me

Are you

Scared

By any chance

My love

As you lay

There sprawled

And shaking

Next to me

Like a fallen

Mourning dove

Then whisper

To me

Sweetheart

Through

Wisps of golden

Hair

As here and now

We lie naked

On this

Parquet floor

Trying to make

Some sense of

Light

Escaping

From our one

Cracked mirror

As limbs  

Knotted and glisten

In a thousand

Splintered reflections

Still yet to become

Memories

And I beg you

Tell me how it feels

sounds like the story of my life.. cheers Andrew sir, you got me all worded up now.... Neville
Some how this has a eerie feeling to it...

Mmmm not a lovey dovey feeling...a mourning dove.... she seems to be completely broken....still the question of how she feels.... some how seems ironic.... that's what I could make out of this ( :) not sure if that's what you meant)

It all adds to the spice of life... thank you Ardra... N
With So much concern you question her! ... all the moments of love and despair eventually become memories and strengthen a relationship! Wonderfully sensual writing, dear Neville.

Bless ya M and true...
Do you know Neville, I got an overwhelming sense of sickness reading these lines. Wisps of golden hair, sprawled on the floor and fear. Fighting to live, that is what came into my mind. The cracked mirror? Bad luck. Oh my goodness this hit home big time.
