Description
The Writer's Gallery has a challenge every month and this was my entry. I tied for first with 3 other people and we all get to choose a theme for the next challenge. Check it out--it's lots of fun!!
Alone In The Dark
Going to bed
Alone in the dark
Yet again
Empty house
Except for
My body
Aching yearning
Wondering
If I'll ever be held again
Lying there
Thinking dreaming
Of impossible dreams
Lying there
Sometimes tears
Roll down my cheeks
Then the sun
Comes up
And life is brighter
And all is well
In the world
And I rejoice
Simple banal
Silly unlikely
Perhaps
Then night comes
Again and I am
Alone in the dark

Great one Marilyn, you have a real talent for this
I love the poem.It´s impressive,because it´s simple real!
Fine image and poignant prose in this one, Maz! IMHO you should win the Writer's Gallery challenge going away.
lovely Marilyn, you really have a way. The rhythms are little sighs & breaths, like you're giving pieces of your heart with each group. And it's delightful how you finally wake to the day, and then...back to the night. You say a lot in a few words, the Japanese masters would love you. Congratulations on tying for first. I'm embarrassed to say I never got there because I just was swamped, and now I feel like a heel. But I'll go there and read them if they're still there, and maybe I'll enter something next time. Beautiful work, and fitting photo too.
