To me; envy of butterflies.
You startle with words
as you speak with your eyes.
I Shall rise for my soul
as I look at you during sunrise.
I See this desire in you
while I got lost in your labyrinth of lies.
Tell me how you loved me
if you didn’t speak in disguise.
Show me how I have to believe you
as the stars have spoken for the wise.
In hope I do not trust
as I remember the tears of night-cries.
When you looked away
as I saw the the world falling from the skies.
You startle with words
To me; envy of butterflies.
I tried something new today; I did what?
Yes, my next poem is a try-out. I hope you liked it at first sight? because, there is a little trick in it. You can read my poem from top to bottom, but at the same time you can read it from bottom to top! So please, Check it out and tell me what you think. It was my first time trying this out! Have fun!

This was interesting to read. I believe every good poem can be read from anywhere in any order unless some metre scheme is put as a constraint: which means : though I don’t want to disparage your efforts: I don’t see you doing anything novel in the genre of poetry. My apologies. Say my hello to Lia the poet if she’s still your friend.

This is so true. Every poem can be read in any kind of order. But for me, the experience lies within my heart and mind. For me, whenever I write, I try out new things what feels like new to me. Maybe not to all, but to me it is and was. writing is about expressing your thoughts, isn’t?
And yes, lia and I are still friends. I shall say hello from you.
