The Only Thing I Want Today, I Will Want Tomorrow
Shadows blend
in twisted weaves
enrapt tones
curve
bow with body
jawline songs of praise
float
clear giving water
waves
lap with sustenance
today these waves rolled out again
not an eye was blind not a thing held in
just the home i miss in the pouring rain
I saw the vast wide open, i heard the empty space
hid in hands that smell of mornin'
calling on the echos as they slap my face

I found this very soothing until the last three words. I guess I could use a good slapping myself. This is beautifully written, and I take it as a celebration of nature, or the natural order of things. The title suggests a Zen-like serenity to me. My favorite lines:
today these waves rolled out again
not a eye was blind not a thing held in
just the home i miss in the pouring rain
Fine work souladareatease. I'll see you in the rain.

This is tumultuous
worthy of epic, with
a little bit of love
blended with hate
for something
continually desired;
this has Soul ... ;)

Soul, my friend....this is hauntingly lovey--with a poignant, bittersweet longing for something desired.....just out reach and not quite attainable..... i read it with sighs.....of O--how beautiful.....and too, how sad--somehow......
A special scribe....with depth of expression--heart-felt
( and....Dylan....that selection...( his vocals)....both echo the emotions of your poem !! )

Minor edit: not a eye > not an eye
You always have this tendency to drift into a totally seperate universe, parallel to the one that you live in. It's a beautiful descent. This poem reminds me of Alice falling through the rabbit hole into wonderland.
Hold on to that love. It's a precious thing.
Thank you for the read :)
