Oblivious

Oblivious

A Poem by jenniewren (J.W. Bouwman)

a season's change

an image's fade

a world's collapse


a whimper in the dark

a high tiny whine

of sound in your ear


the reverberation of a sound

when it is dying

the last death knell of a frequency

you will soon cease to know exists


tho' whether you knew

of its existence

in the first place

seems to be up for debate

i like the surreal imagery this piece creates, makes me think and thats great, also has me wondering what exactly it is about, death..the fleeting moment of sound, those glimpses of everyday life that people take for granted but are full of enlightenment...in any case i enjoyed the read and look forward to reading more.

beautiful and touching, you deliver a lively sense meaning to the existence
of silence, and perhaps a metaphorical pondering on life itself, and what
it is to respect the day, time and the changing of perception as reality ages.
you have a real poetic sense of heart, keep up the great work J

You give such wonder to a world that is often blind to its surroundings... What we should see or feel or hear can be limited by so many internal and external things... yet here you breathe a personality and life into this one... Wonderful and intriguing write!

Some people live in their own little world until they lose something special but by then it is always to late. Nice poem and good write.
