I’m up here.

a poem by Joel S. Andrada Jr.

You dwell in the place of silence.          

Sitting and just staring.                            

Sit and stare.         

Inhaling the cold air,                                

Filling your lungs with fresh frozen     

Oxygen,

 Specially made by the earth.    

 

You are lonely in the dark.

At the middle of a strange place,

Where your soul and those

Ghouls play every night.

 

A place so cold,

Even the promises of yesterday

Are still frozen.

A cold place in which only darkness exist.

 

A place where you

Sit

and stare at the mist.

Mist that used to be a solid,

Until I was gone.

 

You just sit and stare.

But inside you are waiting.

 

Waiting for the person

From yesterday,

that used to light this place.

 

So please,

Stop staring at the mist!

Look above!

Look at the sky!

 

I am using these stars to write

A message for you.

 

My love,

I’m up here.
