In Vapors Caught

Inspired by Pink Floyd's song Comfortably Numb

I call your name but you never hear

or maybe I've just imagine it

my mind is comfortably numb

to reality; my perception of time

and space askew

I can't forget each painful night 

without you by my side

vibrant visions of you invade

 my thoughts; dusk..

dawn or midnight hour 

stone illusions haunt me.

my heart hangs in broken pieces 

cold icicles~frozen fingers.. reaching,

reaching out In darkness.. hello..hello

 again echoes back ~ a sad refrain

but the angels say it's okay..it's okay

while the devils whisper let's play

I'm in the middle of nowhere..falling

falling but you're not there to catch me.. 

from crashing.or letting me fly too high.

. I call once more hello.. hello.

.jumbled words inside my head

 as I walk in dome covered shadows 

dark and sullen,wandering down

 rainy streets caught in vapors of gray..

alone without you~

dearest Fran… when Life is dark and dreary.. it is just the shadow of an Angel’s Wing watching Over you. May you find Roses under the Snow when the Wind blows… we grow until Spring blossoms into Hope. tenderly, Pat

I can feel the sadness and desolation within this poem. Sometimes it is hard to forget a former loved one who is no longer there for us, for whatever reason. Many of us have been in that very same situation. A poignant write, Fran!
