A Foreign FeelingA Poem by Valira DavenportI finally got around to writing something new. It's based on the way I've been feeling lately. It's free verse as well, which I don't do much.
An unknown hand tries to grab my thoughts away
My fear rises and and a knot in my stomach forms The fear sits in that knot and lingers throughout I see myself alone and cracked all over My body remembers a time of being full Those cracks once fixed along with my soul My heart had beat with enjoyment of life then Now the feeling I've got keeps it alive An indescribable feeling that only brings pain Shocks throughout my body and suicidal thoughts racing My mind looking for a happiness that is no longer there I wait for it and it never comes I am faced to watch such a terrible being A terrible monster that does not give room to hide I stand alone and afraid to fight this being Alone...? Breaking...? Watching...? Waiting...? Why am I so alone here now? How come I am breaking all over again? What is it that I am watching here? When will all this waiting be over? Alone...? Breaking...? Watching...? Waiting...? What is bothering me so badly? I am hurt, but for what reason? It feels like there is something I can no longer have As I wait in wonder I hope that something can be saved What is bothering me?... © 2011 Valira Davenport |
