Staring down two high beams from the sidewalk
With a melancholic feeling
From within there is
A heart beating in my chest
Lungs tripping over my breath
In these moments I feel like a mere vessel
Standing in the crisp air
The surface of my face dons a pink tint
And on the tip of my tongue, resting behind my teeth
Is something profound
In the only language my sadness knows
Poetry

Will the moment pass for you, and be a better moment? Is it 2:48:12 now?!
this is a wonderful read,
stylistically, somewhat reminiscent of Emily Dickinson,
without the rhyming..
thanks for sharing
