"A Note..."

"A Note..."

A Poem by Chris
"

So many, many lines to read between ...aren't there?

"

So many, many lines to read

- between -

aren't there?

 

 

"A Note..."

 

"Hi...", it's just me ...again

no one ..special

nothing ...nothing new.

 

Just me, "I wanted..."

way too much - always too much

 

I guess that IS the way of things -

everythings, anythings ...always too much

of something - cost, paid or due

 

me wanting ...you... wanting

everybody wanting -

"To say..."

- seems words just get in the way

as we each trip, stumble, even fall

to our ...heavenly hell - hell-fully-heaven

our     doom     our     being so found

     our     rememberings     in the night

          our      tears     have so much meaning

ours     hours     too much     meaning

sometimes they're right here - within

     me     us     the words

-arethewords -     surround EACH word...

big, little, meaning-full

meaningless

words     begging

said, heard, known ...given

forgottenrememberedand sometimesyouwishyouhadn't ..spoken

ever breathed, tried...

because you risked too much, too little,

too everything you knew

for what you didn't really know at all

- understand ..at all.

 

"I hope..." no, I don't DO that - any more

anymore     ever     more    evermore

forever     forevermores     that's what we always risk - isn't it?

- the empty nights

- the wish-full days

the lil things that edge and border our existence

..the thoughts we hold so tight inside...

 

"...Everything..." - what's it all mean,

what DID it all ...mean?

What's any thing mean when you feel

this     way

hurt-full?     Numb?     so empty -

even God is crying.

It's the silence that fills me ...now.

 

The silence - life...fading

"...IS going - well."

"Take care."

 

Chris

I do feel god has to cry upon this manic world which he has created and left to our own devices. looking for words to speak can bring you to a halt whilst creating words on paper is so much easier

Hi again...
Nice one. I liked it. I read first the... Note and then the rest. Good poem, and the line "even god is crying. It's the silence that fills me...now" is a very beautiful one.

Thank you, I appreciate you're pausing and leaving thoughts behind... hope to see you again.
Love this. The words inside our heads that we mean versus what we actually say. So well done!

Excellent flow. I love how you really delve into each word so we feel them and understand them. Expressed perfectly.

I've lost so very much
In between so many lines
Pausing with hope
At all the wrong doors ..
Reaching beyond me
And leaving and then left
Always alone ..

The pain that can't be seen, never hurts any one .. else

Monday .. who knew .

Take Care .. breathe on and on .. because .. .. .. J.

That is a big down fall of us humans, we spend so much time reaching for more and what we don't have that life slips away and so does the important things in our life.

I never think about it... I like to dive in and get lost in the words to see where they carry me.
