Ghost Like

A Poem by Broken Like An Angel

Tearing me apart.

Water slowly freezing in my heart.

Trees falling naked of their leaves.

Taking it in, slowly she breathes.

With thread I’m holding myself together.

Body as fragile as a feather.

Maybe I’m too late.

Starting to suffocate.

Trying to gasp for air.

When there’s nothing there.

Searching for old memories.

I’m no one but me.

I’m confused, who am I?

When did I die?

Why can’t I recall?

How fast did I fall?

Can I be free?

Help me believe.

When did I give up, stop trying?

When did my wings break, preventing me from flying?

I don’t remember the sorrows before.

I don’t remember when my body tore.

Why can’t I feel?

Why is the rope unwinding on this wheel?

Who am I to turn to?

When my body dies, skin faded blue.

My brain is twisted into the glass. I have no rhyme or reason for my writing. Speaking in words the human brain can not decipher. Seeing things as no one can. Breathing in the fires of ice, while sing.. more..
