Why, yes, we know why it\'s a lonely street - they all got tired of waiting for the bus and went home - or walked to town! lol. You thought you saw a No 7 bus, but it was only in your dreams? lol.

My friend, “The silence echoes / So very loud” lands beautifully. It captures that strange emotional paradox where isolation itself becomes overwhelming noise inside the mind. Strong piece, Norman. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A vivid image poetically painted but there may be more in metaphor in this cold and desolate picture where the inner workings of the individual may be represented. Well done Norman

PREMONITION
Friendship said:
Well written. Your poem captures a narrative of a night filled with ominous feelings and a sense of impending doom, culminating in an act of violence.

Good write N.
You been waiting so long for that bus that you\'re having premonitions, illusions, seeing things, about it now! lol. It\'s a ghost-bus, a mirage. lol.

PREMONITION
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, “Like a cigarette / Rolled too tight” is such an effective opening image. It immediately creates pressure, discomfort, and the feeling that something is about to snap. Great job on this, Norman. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

NIGHTMARE
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this has the feel of wandering through an abandoned inner landscape at night. Strange rooms, trembling voices, shadowed kingdoms, pounding heartbeat…it all builds a powerful sense of emotional exhaustion and haunted unrest. Wonderful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

ONE TEAR
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this has such delicate emotional control to it. The tear becomes memory, confession, grief, and release all within one small movement across the skin. Wonderfully written, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Norman you have taken an image so commonly used in poetry that it is trite and made it most poetic and artistic in this poem that paints the image well but more importantly has personified it and made it alive and a subject of pity. Well written and a fave

Norman, what I enjoyed most here is the naturalness of it all. The conferences, the anniversary congratulations, the quick catching-up energy…it feels like an actual human moment preserved instead of polished into something artificial. That sincerity gives it warmth and heart. Strongly conveyed, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

and, breathe. Works for me, the suspense playing backwards, instead of wondering what\'s still to happen. Nicely done.
