New addiction

I found a new thing to add to my list of numerous addictions and writing seemed to win the award. Wrote my second poem last night, here it is and tell me what you think.

MY SWEET SORROW

I stroke the water with my fingers
Ripples of an image
Clear like a broken mirror
Staring into the deep with a furrow

The glistening on the waters
So beautiful
With the chaos of the mind

Racing from North to south
Wishing for a drop in the drought
Wandering like a lost lamb
And I thought..

Dreams of an angel
Eager to meet
Xylophones I hear
Yearning for more
Kills my heart
Unfolds the mystery
Love known and unknown
I blink

Thoughts of you
Lost in the mood
Streaks of rain
Tasteless yet drains

Rays of light
Streaming through
Crystal clear
Like diamond in the light

Yet my heart is deaf
My mind set
The ravishing thought
Of my sweet sorrow
