I water my desert pain โฃ
with your name โฃ
Your sun flare gazeโฃ
lights up aurorasโฃ
But in a cityโฃ
the stars only dazzle in โฃ
dreams
You find my light โฃ
waning by your sideโฃ
Premonitions come to you as deja vu โฃ
Realisations of changing feelingsโฃ
You leave my orbit to createโฃ
your own planet to watch my โฃ
supernova
I happened to check Feedspot’s top 100 poetry blogs of 2021 as a blogger was featured there and I found my blog featured there as well for 2nd year in a row. They’ve used JanBeek‘s picture with my blog’s name (at no.36), which I don’t mind since she’s been with me on my journey of blogging for so long. Fun fact: She’s also the top commenter here, so thank you so much! Without the readers who’ve stayed and read me for this long, I am nothing.
So thanks to those who stayed and those who will stay here for longer. I promise not to disappoint you and try to raise the level of my writing and knowledge in years to come.
To more writing and more reading! โค๏ธ

This is so visceral I can feel it. It drew me into the remainder. I like this one particularly, as I like all of Yours generally.
Undoubtedly you are talented. Do not let the desert sand, the grit of it,blind you to an oasis of loving.
