![]() CocoonA Poem by Ethan Talby
I once knew a girl
As powerful as the sea Always on the move Lacking the soul to be Truly unique and fresh Choosing to instead leave Back Into Her Cocoon You left too soon The air is filled with gloom When you lie in your cocoon I once knew this boy Quieter than Christmas Eve Yet he had expression Whenever meeting Steve But that did end Never to be a queen Back Into His Cocoon You left too soon The air is filled with gloom When you lie in your cocoon I once knew this hermit Though he's never been seen When it comes to the outside world He's never really been Then one day he embraced the sun But it was too much and he did bleed Back Into His Cocoon You left too soon The air is filled with gloom When you lie in your cocoon I once knew this cat Raised between the seams Falling asleep in her master's arms Having outdoor dreams But she would fall ill If she went out to be free Back Into Her Cocoon You left too soon The air is filled with gloom When you lie in your cocoon © 2011 Ethan Talby |
