"Beyond Shadow",

Poetry in motion chases heart's enter core.
In love with words written.

Poetry like babies in cradle.
Staring into mommy eyes.
Willing to be loved, not knowing what's in store.
Will you teach me all that need to be taught,
Will you cherish me through all ups and downs.
Can I trust you to mend my heart when it's broken.

Love tangles with pen, in love- out of love.
Bumps, scrapes, bruises, it's still poetry.

Yesterday's shadow still cast their curtain.
Hearts created since the beginning of time.
Pumping, learning what causes each emotion.

Romeo and Juliet, young souls yearning, let our
love stand.
Steered by the hand of William Shakespeare.
Brilliant mind of a poet in yester years.
His message reads clear, love can make one take
drastic measures to remain together.

Poems mentality conceive giving birth to pen and paper.
Adult, youth, adolescence, pens bleeds knowledge of roads taken.
Precise, strong effects reflecting each individual's perceptions.
Yesterday's shadow touches many hearts while dancing on paper.
Future hearts dancing hoping their words will stand the test of time.
