Echoes and ExitsA Poem by Niki Disasterthere are echoes here like nowhere else. despite the crashing that takes up most of the room there is empty noise. His faint thoughts manage to reach my ears and, whether the ringing is all in my head or not, i respond exactly how i would if he had whispered the words directly to me...
The Imagination does brutal things if we ask it to, and I utilize my ability to lie to myself very well. As passing through his life has become one of his standard memories, I must decide how much I will let him mean to me. I say this in my head as if I actually have the power, the ability, the self control or the will power to be that girl. The strong minded girl who never gets hurt or left behind.
i remember what it feels like to be that girl. I close my eyes, listen to my nerves, breathe into the wind and let out the only thing i can muster: "please don't leave me..." © 2008 Niki DisasterReviews
