Nighttime Bliss And Heartache Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Intense and livid music taunting me with it's beats,
drumming up against my mind, nothing able to sway
me from what I love to do.

Finding no better way than to immerse myself within
rhythms that invisibly carry me into outer frontiers
far from this earthly life.

Midnight sneaking up on me, rolling down the highway,
as life keeps driving my mind away, testing random
thoughts as they fill me with their intensity of rhythm.

Totally in synch, nothing else mattering in this life-
time, letting incessant beats take me into outskirts of
a nighttime bliss that is filled with heartache.
