The Poetry Marathon

Destiny, you and I

How you found me, and I, you

An eternal love

Delirium grows

Sleep deprivation sets in

Unfiltered writing

I am the woman

Who plagues your dreams every night—

The one you’ll marry

I hesitated

I held back all my feelings

And I freed myself

Thoughts of you linger

Long after we’ve parted ways

You will return soon

Whispers in the wind

Name those we have forgotten

We will share their fate

Faceted crystal

Refracts the flickering light

Figures on ceilings

Electricity

Tingles through my fingertips

When you hold my hand

Fluttering fabrics

Jovial camaraderie

Everyone’s dancing

Gentle ambiance

Light jazz and couples dancing

Wedding memories
