Self destroyed
When do roses cease to be
Only in eyes on lonely trees
I find I listen patiently
Disturbed
Nothing is said or heard in me
So instead I listen to the songs that feed the night
And for a glimpse these stars are truly bright
Self destroyed
Expression dies
They only twinkle in my eyes
Fantasy dissolved away
Into an almost fatal presentation of the new day
These ups and downs grow weary
Tired
Betrayed by hope
Somehow
I’m still inspired.

I love beautiful nature, but I hate listening to music because it distracts my thoughts. I'd rather write my own music, create my own art, and write my own poetry.
Can you tell how much of a self-centered woman I am? Although, before recently, I've only created mostly for my own satisfaction.
But, I am trying to open up to other people's art. You are one of the first that, inspires me, besides, of course, Robert Frost, even though I make no effort to write like him. "The Road Not Taken" will always be a poem I can recite by heart. Do you like Robert Frost?
