Casper-esque Hearted-Shaped Hope-Chest

As senselessly we wander

Trying to catch lightning

Like fireflies

How much abandoned silence is enough

To show the world we need love

Where shattered words bleed hope

That maybe life is for the living

 

To my fellow ghosts,

as we are alone.

We do have eachother.

And maybe

hopefully

it might be enough.

Allegory

It's been a while since I encountered it. This poem is as electrically charged as your lightening harvested like fireflies. Hauntingly, your ghost(s) excavate levels of aloneness. Eerily, I read it several times and found it terrifyingly and humanly beautiful. ~ Lady A ~

Indeed Stella

I am trying to excavate those levels lately, by reaching out more and having something nice to say for all PPoets.  Always appreciate your words, forgive me for not immediately  reciprocating the gesture.
