RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Playfully tossing cares to the wind, meandering down quiet
pathways of nature alone.

Becoming peaceful and serene with every step taken, shining
...

Totally enjoying what I am doing, writing and texting my
friend in between.

Beautiful landscapes are forming continually in mind
...

My heart desires something it can never have, so I sit and
suffer through life, pretending it doesn't really matter.

Fingering my piano, composing the songs that will never be
...

Listening to sad music and crying, needing to cry the tears
I have been holding in.

They've been hurting me with their shards of broken memories
...

Writing from depths of emotion, letting them be expressed
as they run from within my personality.

Loving their explicit truths as they wrap their feelings
...

High atop earth, looking down, looking out, at the birth of
life.

Dawning delicately, the night is drawing near, picking it's
...

Unending are thoughts of solitude, brought down to bear
upon an inner mind.

Wanting to take up many crosses, realizing that you're only
...

Sitting close to a forbidden place, able to reach out and touch
the entrance to it.

Watching sunlight dance and shimmer through traces of designs
...

Feeling the excitement of a loving friend, exhilarates my
heart no end.

Wanting to share in everything, both good and bad, feeling
...

Smashed, the eyesight of my seeing, cracked in many places,
crawling like a spider web across my eyes.

Once knowledge stood out in the open, now it lies back
...
