Eyes closed,and I
wonder if dreams
will come,
unencumbered
by the weight of
a fairy tale hope
that there is a smile
hidden in the darkness.
The ghost of a
heartbeat heard
against the shoreline.

You have already become
a memory lost inside
the river of tomorrow.
A drop into the ocean
of a lovers dream of
redemption inside of
a loveless world of stone.
#poetry #fernrenee #you #writingcommunity
Wind swept shorelines
tracing the contours
of a dream lost to
the memories of tomorrow,
a tempest lingers on
the horizion,seeking
a home within my heart.
A kiss of spring rain, against a parched and barren soul.

There are envious dreams that float along the ether, dipping fingers into Culture to partake of something beyond the scope of what is known and seized it fully. Trying to arrest the development of blended community, where laughter knows no cage,and love can not be bound. Where the orphans of this life, can find home among the sacred.

What shall I dream
when sleep finally
comes to lay a soft
touch against my eyes,
and whisper of oceans
and seas that caress
a shoreline far from
the place my feet touch
the land,what music
will be my lullaby,
what love holds me here?
#poetry #fernrenee
There are moments
when I wonder at
how far I've come,
surpassing the old
me, and moving into
the woman that I am.
Breaking down
the barriers to
climb the mountain
of self,only to tunnel
into who I truly am.
The peak is
not the goal,
the only way
out is through.

I saw a picture today
that made words flow
across the page,a
passage of warmth
traced marks across
my soul.
Stone pathways in the
mist of a marsh land,
in a place far from here.
A mirror of my heart
echoing in the rain.
#vss365 warmth
#poetry #fernrenee #creativewriting
There is a
mesmerizing way
the waves whisper and pull,roar and
over take you.
Spilling thoughts
into hearts and
dreams into memory,
and I am caught in the tide of an eternal sea,adrift inside this ocean of what could
and could never be.
#poetry #fernrenee #daydream #you
Would the fall of words
reach the ears that need
them if the voices all
fell silent,rushed whispers muttered like prayers into the stillness of emptiness?
Will touch replace thought,quiet like the rain of a waterfalls spray?
Can you tell me?
#poetry #fernrenee #writingcommunity
Selfie of me, a woman wearing a black tank top and black headwrap,with white and red braids pulled over one shoulder. Portrait of a soul hanging on,trying to find something of meaning,of trying to learn to harness this justifiable rage into something beautifully destructive and chaoticly creative. But its just a selfie,of a woman being.
Proof of life,
or so they say.
Proof of nothing
except pixelated
ideas about living.
#poetry #fernrenee
Am I crazed for wanting the things I do?
I am beginning to think maybe I am.
The silence in my life is deafening, so I try to fill it with music and words and pixels on a screen.
And yet,nothing feels right,and tears are hollow and cold.
Still, I drown.
#vss365 crazed
#poetry #fernrenee
I had a line about the way the clouds looked like the raw edges of herringbone, but the rest drifted away,like those clouds.
Gone into another's horizon line,like random daydreams against the wind.
#poetry #fernrenee #writingcommunity #rambles
Like a dream drifting past waking,the way the sea caresses the shoreline,the way that it whispers....
#poetry #fernrenee #Inspired
capture the moment, none too fast for
an eye to see,
transient meaning
lost inside a fragment
of forever,though
nothing will it mean-

I find that I would like the memory of your smile to be the guide that pulls me to the shore when I am tossed inside the maelstrom of mind.
#poetry #FernRenee #vss365 memory #writingcommunity
I am everything
I am nothing
Universally
Until I become
Undone.
#poetry #fernrenee
Through crystal tears falling does sorrow escape its prison in my heart, glittering the floor with dreams half made and words never spoken.
Emptied to the point of hollowness and grasping at air to be filled again,the hope of sunshine and birdsong.

Just incase y'all didn't know,I have a substack.
It's a little sparse at the moment,but I'm looking to change that with some longer writes.

Driving in the dark
thoughts of you drifting
across my mind like
the owl that swooped
low into headlights,
silent and gone
before I could ask
it to stay.
Daydreams are like that,
they don't stay around.
#poetry #fernrenee #daydream #you
I just want magic In life, in a lover, in everything I just want magic.
This is what I want.
What i am told is unrealistic.
But I am made of fucking magic.
Just like you.
#poetry #fernrenee #prompt #you
I could love with the loyalty that the ocean
has for the shoreline,
or with the intensity of lightning striking with every heartbeat; but the reality is no one really wants that kind of love.
Only the poets dream of such things.
#poetry #fernrenee #vss365 reality #writingcommunity
A faded dream of
waking up to a smile playing across your
lips and the
whisperings of a sigh,
the goal of a soul looking for moonbeams on ocean waves and memories
in the stars.
#poetry #fernrenee #vss365 goal #writingcommunity
I can not put a number on how many times you cross my mind on any given day,but it's never zero.
You are always there somewhere between the infinite and eternal,and I just let it be.
I was never good at math anyway.
#poetry #fernrenee #vss365 #writingcommunity
It is a measure of myth that somehow I will find you,lingering in the liminal,the dreamscapes and shoreline.
A daydream caught in the eyelashes of fate holding its breath before falling into the darkness of reality.
#poetry #fernrenee #vss365 #writingcommunity
I saw your face today,
and the reminder was harsh,and I found myself wanting to cry for the loss,even though the tears would be wasted on you. I was a means to an end that didn't include the weight of what I brought with me.
#poetry #fernrenee #writingcommunity #heartache
I am reminded by the twist in my heart,and
the ache in my breath
that even though I wanted you to be real, you could never be what you have never found inside yourself.
I was the mirror you could not face,so you turned away and left.
Leaving what was,
fearing what could be.
#poetry #fernrenee
I know the sun is there,
hiding behind clouds and moving across the heavens in a dance I can not follow, the steps are lost to me, and my hands are as empty as my heart, where the music echos in a repeating refrain of love long lost.
#poetry #fernrenee #rambles
Trying to forget
who I am inside
of data streams
and roll counts,
the algorithm
working against me, antiviral purges of systems,is this
self care or
self deception.
#poetry #fernrenee
#writingcommunity
Words falling into the streams of consciousness,
leftovers of an
emotional catharsis,
all things meant to
drown me in the
idea that someone
out there hears my
cries in the darkness.
I came up for air,
and found the
truth wanting.
#poetry #fernrenee #rambles
A picture of a rose bush covered in ice,with a small bloom of red.
Beauty frozen
in a moment,
arrested mid bloom
the hope of warmth.
