Reason

Reason

Her mind full of dread
She had taken the walk
to clear her head
No more cheap talk
It was the reason she fled

The route had taken her
to a place unrecognized
She was now unsure
and feeling polarized
What was the lure

The wicked chill of the night
Did little to clear her thoughts
The dismal shroud of fright
Still tying her in knots
She was feeling the vicious bite

Taking leave to find her grace
And reach some reason
Lost in time and place
She exorcised the demon
Gone without a trace

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

      5. I would read a lot more Christine if I didn’t have to switch to your blog site every time … much easier to read it all in the reader but each to their own 🙂

      7. no it gives the first line only then I have to click over to your blog to read even the second line … makes reading a chore when I want to do more 🙂

      9. ok so when you are in your statistics, on the blue line above on the left says “My SItes” and “Reader” …
        well every one you follow their articles are posted in that ‘reader’ so I just stroll through there and easily add likes or comments, usually both … do you open everyones blog, that’s far too slow …

      10. Yes I always open everyone’s blogs otherwise I can’t see the whole post. Yours would come up and I would only see the first few words, so I have to open it 🙂
