Still

sylviasearcher

I won’t whisper to you of my vision
For it is macabre and full of shame
I won’t sink my teeth into your chest
Or bid you screech my name


I will still like a silence
I will wash away like waves
Tomorrow you might hear me weep, or roar
From a yard full of my graves

 

I can’t melt from heat and light
For it would leave a bloody mess
I can’t pour myself into your bones
Or for a moment, linger here or rest


I will roam like an endlessness
I will unsettle sleepy shores
Yesterday you thought you heard me
Lost voice . Forevermore

  • Comment from author about the poem: Feels unfinished but whatever I tried to add seemed to diminish what had gone before. There’s a metaphor in that thought I just can’t work it out!

    That chin checked my heart

    • sylviasearcher

      I am not familiar with chin checking... Are you okay?

      • RiverJordan

        Yeah, I think so, the heart is such a resilient function!
