Lime Tree

katarina giselle on Feb 27, 2011

Haven’t written poetry in a few weeks..

She’s a fan of gravity, he’s a fan of space

and all of her’s he tried to waste

he’ll tell you he’s another St. Stephen

she know’s him better, he’s headed toward treason

maybe it means nothing

maybe it means everything you choose not to see

They are not together here, four in between

city so quiet, tranquilized it seems

I’ll teach her to be bold, with her hands to guide her

feet slip too fleetingly, I’ll stand beside her

maybe it means nothing

maybe it means everything you choose to be

Run, run, gather the world inside

feel, speak, after all, no way to hide

stars dancing on a carpet in the sky for you

he can’t hurt you, you know the truth

maybe it means nothing

maybe it means everything, you’re safe in the lime tree

Very intriguing poem. Let it stand on its own, don’t explain. Thank you.

Never explain – keep them guessing – thank you

hard to digest what you meant, thanks you said that the words have symbolism engraved on it.

I don’t get poetry, but I am trying, so please keep on writing. I am hoping for a light-bulb moment.

Nice poem that could be a song. Just remember that “oak tree’s” grow way higher than “lime tree’s”…..haha Well done.

Hi there!
