Forest Walk Poem by General TripleD

Forest Walk



The forest I could not find
Only trees filled my mind
Looking and searching was what I did
But I did not find the forest, not even a bit
Suddenly I saw you
And forgot what to do
I tried to breathe, to talk, to think
My body didn’t even blink
Before I realized, my heart was gone
Your talking, I felt it in every bone
I tried to break the silence: 'what is'
Then you shut me up with a kiss
At last I found the forest in these trees
But now I was attracted to you, you were what honey is for bees

I closed my eyes
And saw different skies
I could see the pictures in my head
But I tried to open my eyes instead
Your voice kept going on
Finally, I opened my eyes and you were gone

I started to walk home
When I looked back the forest was gone
