Illusion.A Poem by Lydia
the alarm clock Moved and it's started again: I'm seeing things and a voice belonging to the throat of a Ghost is saying my name too slow. this happened before Two years to the month twenty four months to the Day. the bed Moved a little. the window opens, then closed like the eyes of A dead man, like the folding of Hands and words sent to strangers in elevators down Under on and on it goes and where I'll stop, Nobody knows nobody knows I told him once but he Died He's dead. I had no chance to say goodbye even when You waved your skeleton hand At me. eighteen Years of wasted breath, and one dose of Reality. © 2008 Lydia |
