Side by side
Cheek to cheek
Is always the shadow
So long I refused to see.
.
Shadow and light
Hand in hand
Relentlessly mocking
At every turn
An ambush
Towering over
Surrendered trust.
.
The naïve
Pounced on
By the voracious
Ever entrapping
Sleek panther
Lurking, invading
Usurping
Finally choking
The inattentive
Distracted one
.
Shadow…
Friend of some
Partner of
Many-a-hungered
Desperate
Flailing
Guttural
Oppressed
Suppressed cry
.
Flowing
Balancing
Intense passion
Ushering forward
Often sharply
Augmenting the light!

A flaming hot piece, love it!! First timer here in your blog world but i'll be back for more inspiration
Thank you for your kind words Lyricaly speaking
I indulge in the written word from time to time - I fancy myself writing poetry.......
:)
This is a lovely piece, perhaps your best thus far because I know you will be writing more and better, I enjoyed this, short lines but long on implications and very suited to the message you are conveying, you should write more!
Bless your kind and encouraging words Kianseng.
They mean the world to me - particularly coming form you.
I can only write whe moved to do so - much like painting... I ned to "feel it", otherwise all is just an abstract subject.
I write, not always poetry - you can find at AlmaPathDirections and the latest story... "Chronicles of a Huge Bellied Purple Suitcase... at MischiefAngel blogs
Have you visited StudioGaleria yet - or you stopped at Muptiply?
Honestly I canot keep up with all of these.
I have been invited to "Fecabook" and tried that for a while also... I just have a blog feed now and leave a few words update.
I am seriously considering a website and moving away from the blogs as such... life is forever changing and does not allow me to be "gracious and reciprocal" with my blogger friends on a continuos basis - which I greatly regret.
A lot have moved on, and I do miss them!
Ce la vie...
Love, joy and many blessings
The shadow and light ...words and shades falling on us in shadow and light
