Sometimes when the brain cannot decipher a poem, trust your heart to take over.

The fabric of the sky and sea

woven in words of poetry

poetic words to the heights they fly

a spontaneous commune with clouds and sky.

Or submerge in mind’s submarine

to the darkest depths , unseen.

Words may too run haywire

seamless, tactless, arouse desire

no chains, no shackles stall their motion

expressions alien, you have no notion.

Poems dancing in the smoke

decoding sometimes, a killer stroke.

Helpless, then you wrack your brain

your heart will fathom, will hold the rein.

    “submerge in mind’s submarine
    to the darkest depths , unseen.”

    Simply superb lines. This cannot be and should not be appreciated in just words. Thanks a lot :)

    For poetry is but the spoken word,
    May make sense or maybe absurd.
    But they are thoughts right from the heart,
    Woven intricately right from the start.

    Lovely write, thank you for sharing… :-)
