anymore

 

she doesn't remember  


anymore 


there is no one here who does
no one looks up now
no one looks down either

no one sees with sideway glances

as if no one is there 
if they  squint they still can’t see
it is like no one has sight


anymore


there are no havens

a shelter she will never have

but her thoughts haunt

and hunt her
 
 


waves of concessions forming the final swells
confessions that ebb in time
all diffuse
and fading
into surreptitious situations
within constant confusion
circling down as they drift
as if to linger tired and agonized
while crying around disruptions
which terribly never decline



until, it doesn't matter

it doesn’t matter 


anymore

A Great Line

"...no one looks up now/no one looks down either..." It seems like life is like that sometimes - where is the direction coded leadership? - Read 2x - to be immersed in the voice. Nice - Lady A
