POEM STARTER
Feeling Known
Write a poem that could use this as its title or central theme.
Feeling Known
This is new to me
Or have I felt it before
A loud deep knock on an unopened door
The light envelops me
A warm caress
Can we find each other, can we coalesce
A feeling of comfort
Washes over my soul
Is it time to finally relinquish control
Can someone match you
Bring out your best qualities
Teach you some, show you new realities
Feeling known
Is not what you think
Be fragile, don’t fall on your instinct
Love is lending grace
Love is a happy place
When everything else is gone, it can be replaced
Feeling known is not what you think
We create perspectives for ourselves
When they are challenged we enter new realms
Growth is uncomfortable
But when you are feeling known
Your old feelings are overthrown
