From Hell to Hello

From Hell to Hello

A Poem by Kelley Quinn

And she said yes,
silently, trembling because to be
fickle would instigate a new thought,
a new pain, and still she said yes. 

The daylight whispers
no
and she believes the
logic and formality.
Because a thought
with no home cannot be kept clean.
A thought alone drifts, dirtying itself and
becomes an action.
Her thoughts shrink down, pressuring
her until the sun winks out and dies.

The night sings yes and screams
with red-teared eyes as her
thoughts stop living for a breath
and still she says yes. 

As the night repeats over, refusing 
to breathe its last until the sun 
suffocates the black with the yellow-orange 
tint that says:
"Hello again" and 
"No, not again."

But she keeps turning until
yes and no are the same thought, the
same day until no time breaks up one
from the other and so the earth keeps spinning,
never saying yes, never thinking no;
Lost in the wonder of thoughts and fate.

A nice poem. The thought you have conveyed is complex and really nice. It's a really well written poem, Although i do feel it could have been better had it been more simpler! Still, it's a nice poem with good structure and imagery. Keep Writing! :)
