Saturday Morning Poetry? A Ms. Bat Musing

Ms. Bat

I know for most cartoons would have been the fill in the blank, but I am talking poetry! Hey there Astonish fans!! Ms. Bat here with a few poems off of Poetry.com that I wrote several years ago. The website is shutting down and they plan to purge all the data so I thought I would grab copies of my work to ensure they didn't get lost.

If you have ever posted there and need to get a copy of your work, I suggest you do it before May 4, 2011 because after that day it will be too late! :(

So here is Poem #1

Together and Apart

We are together, yet apart.
It seems as though you, by my heart
were made to be here with me.
Yet my mind sings a different tune.
Like winter winds in the midst of June.
No roses promised, nor gloomy rains.
And through each change there lingers
here, a ghost of loves sweet remembrance.
What did we have that now we've lost...
The cost might be too great.
For priceless is the love we share
Together and Apart

and Poem #2

Distress

Bitter
Torn, Bleeding
I await silence,
Anxious for the end.
Scared of unknowns,
Slowly slipping..
Gone.


Tortured
Wrung out
My heart falters
I long for nothingness
Peace heckles from a distance
I sink slowly down
Darkness closes in
Choking me
Dead

Perhaps muse will kick in soon and more will flourish!

Until next week Astonish fans

~The Lady Bat
