RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Shadows of moonlight reflecting tones and moods of what
is filling the atmosphere between we two, hearts being
exercised long into the night.
...

Feelings like lava flowing through this being, shaking
away all the lies and illusions of yesterday.

Truth and honesty taking us into an exponential exist-
...

Instrumentally noticing elusive words of love making their
way onto skyways of another time, looking over edges of
tidy bundles of rhythms and their notes.
...

Silence of life hiding in canyons and ravines of yesterday,
not wanting to return to circles of being, wanting nothing
in this life for it has all quietly been shut out.
...

Watching a friend who has turned his back and walked
away, listening to rumors of a heartless and mean-
spirited person, taking them to heart.
...

Loving these gifts of innate talent and intellect,
they give me so much pleasure, going inside self,
finding the beauty of life without even trying.
...

Feeling saddened by circumstances in life, nothing
to be done about any of them, just experiencing and
learning as I go through each one.
...

Emptiness surrounds my heart, filling my eyes with tears
of sadness and drops of sorrow.

Heart beating needlessly for I do not wish to continue
...

Looking outside, seeing everything through the
sadness of my heart.

Tree branches drooping with the silence of grief
...

Being totally in a mood of belligerent feelings,
not wanting to talk to anyone, being insolent
within myself.
...
