Have you listened to poems instead of reading them? Last night I listened to two poems, the reader had a calm voice, and she advised us to close our eyes. It was such a powerful experience, a burst of creativity. Before sleeping I wrote the poem below, I had in mind the prompt for the 99-word challenge, Lady Shadow, and also I thought it is perfect for the Moonwashed challenge, Evolve.
You are not alone Within you There is a woman The true version of yourself The one that lurks in the dark The one that steps side by side with you The one that sees what you don’t see But remains quiet The one that talks to you through dreams and nightmares The one that holds you when you need it most You are not alone Listen to her and evolve The wise words of someone that sees the truth The shadow woman Carrying the experience of generations The ones that were here before you You are not alone
