jamais vu

angeloverthemoon

I stand before the shore

Once more

The horizon, familiar yet it looks so wrong

The waves whisper a name I’ve never knew,

But heard before

Salt stings like déjà vu, reversed.

A memory that never belonged.

The sky bends, a mirror cracked,

Colors bleed where they shouldn’t be,

And I wonder if the sea remembers me.

Each tide a stranger’s hand,

Pulling me toward a world I knew,

But no longer recognize

Where the familiar dissolves into something new

And comfort is there the least.

    This poem with some rhyme and good flow is strengthened by its message. Strange and inverted from common thought it seems most original but makes a much sense as reality. It is dream like and surreal to the extreme and gets a fave for that.
