it is now
in the early morning
when the sun is not yet thought of rising
and the dusk lies dust upon the empty
street
lights flicker
and grass soaks in dew
its now
house stills with undone eyes
when lines blur between today and tomorrow
now
when concrete rests
when clocks echo in hallways and
light blooms a 1/4 of a world
away
with empty sink
full stomach
tired pen
now when
the tea does not boil over
the counselor doesn't talk
the laughter does not reverberate
now
the fear comes
i cannot avoid
the memory
of your off-white room
with the angel light
when you first wake
with sleepers kissing
your long
eyelashes
Absolutely wonderful!
Absolutely wonderful!
Hey! this is great! Loved the
Hey! this is great! Loved the use of repetition, it really built a lot of suspense!
