Layers of ...

Layers of light
layers of love
layers of melancholy
layers of disappointment
layers of despair
layers of light
shine through the despair
but go back into hiding.
Layers of love
hibernate in the coves of gloom
layers of energy
layers of ambition
layers of hope
torn by dismay.
layers of hope
trying to survive.
Layers of layers
lying around, unused.
layers of time:
minutes, days, months, years
racing away.
layers of light
cover me gently
as I toss restlessly,
seeking some comfort,
and finally I find it.
What are your layers? I invite you to send me a layers poem of your own. Share your layers. NOTE: See website for upcoming September poetry workshop!!
