divinity



deep eyes of divinity
started rusty innard-gears.
steam and sparks and leaky parts
woke his body's sleeping heart.

lunar smiles, exploding touch
floating fires of northern skies.
recollections parasite
dream of moments black-and-white.

unreasonable restraint,
resolution in plain sight.
warming flames once set him free
fed on thoughts and left debris.

letting go of rails and ledges
trying out his opaque wings
no ground below - no roof above
the only word he hears is love

david holmberg

I'm a Swedish artist with many fields of interest.My poems are often about spirituality, philosophy, love, emotions and sometimes they are even a tad nonsensical :)I have a history of depression and alot of reflection about my self, conciousness and the world. I am introverted, honest and love to delve into the different realms of art and spirituality!My poetry is very personal and I never try to mimic any other poets.While I haven't explored the stilistical forms of poetry so much I try to work with expression and painting a picture, try to keep it as free as possible. Although I might try out different forms in the future should I feel to. Aaaanyways welcome to my page, hope you enjoy yourself! Any feedback or just spontaneous reactions are much appreciated! :-) more…
