D. R. Herringtons' poetry stash
Untitled
Through the void your beauty echos, like ripples in a stream.
To wish that I could stand before you, a hopeless, distant dream.
In the darkness, lost and lonely, you brought me back to life.
Yet the weight of circumstances, cuts through me like a knife.
Never will I feel your warmth, nor will I bask there in your light.
Alone here, trapped in shadows, a prisoner in an endless night.
I wish for you only happiness,
I hope for all your joys to grow.
I pray the world treats you kindly,
And returns the love you show.
You are a rare and precious treasure, a truly caring being.
As you go on, please remember,
You deserve the best in everything.

Love your style and gentle exploration of such deep emotions. I have to also admit, on a personal level, hearing the author read out their own work is always so pleasing (and the fact that timbre of your voice is so soothing adds even more to the atmosphere). *Thinks I may very well have to listen more to those poems for their ASMR qualities too when needing to relax*
It is really great being able to experience more of your work. Thank you for sharing it, and I hope there will be more to come.
