Just Static

Lily_



I am not inspired--

Here.

My mind has become

To

Numb--

 

I cover my ears,

To block out the sirens-

And the silence.

 

The white noise sneaks through,

Anyway.

 

Recent insomnia clouds my creativity,

I sift through the fog

To find something--

Anything.

 

But there is nothing.

Just static.

 

I needed you here.

But--

I did this alone.

 

I thought I would feel my eyes

Swell with tears.

 

I didn't--

Not.

Even.

Once.

I wish I had.

-- 

Just static.

    Your poem is a fine presentation of feeling numb, expressionless, uncreative ... yet you created a worthy poem. Well done, Silk!
