Abstract Lives

Abstract Lives

A Poem by Moonflower

We were born

 

Crawling out of the

Illusions

 

I never knew

 

You

were Here.

 

Waiting for

my arrival

 

Time

is just an

acquiescent

 

Flooding over,

Pulling Tides

 

The Moon rose

High

over roof tops

 

Houses all

in a row

 

What if we didn't

 

...exist?

 

My Love,

My confidant.

 

There isn't any

explanation

 

For this.

Featured Review

Spare, eloquent, haunting. Spelling: "acquiescent."

What strikes this reader is the contrast between "Abstract Lives" and the delicate soulfulness of the poem, underlining the strangeness of existence, that observation is not merely detached, but subtly feels.

Elegant and beautiful.

Something we can't explain. i have been blessed with good friends and they came out of no-where with the gift of friendship and love. I like this poem. The way you write the poem made this so good. I believe we need a lot of luck and hope to survive in this life. Good people allow our journey to be better. A outstanding poem.
