BricksA Poem by AnneElizabethIncreased urges, where is the control? Just stay. For a few more seconds. Understand, selfishly, I just don’t want to believe this is exactly the way it seems. Differentiate the past from the future, today from tomorrow from yesterday-- I cannot. Why should it matter? People, life, things change. Exhausted with misunderstandings-- misinterpretations-- we scream: Words, phrases. That mean everything yet nothing. I search for a way to retrace the steps, to fix what cannot be fixed, but believing in all possibilities as potentially everlasting is a fairy tale life. Flipping though the white-out pages A Once Upon A Time. I can’t decide what story I should be writing. It seems too early for an ending, but my mind is a dead end road leading to a wall too high to climb and there…there you are on the other side. I keep screaming and screaming until my words are no longer heard. STOP! Here I hear, a whisper. Softly. Goodbye for now. Goodbye. Goodbye. So I, too, reply: goodbye. © 2014 AnneElizabeth |
