Lying still in bed
with eyes widely open
staring at the ceiling
perfectly white
nothing but white
the light is dazzling
the noise is deafening
I Sigh, heavily
in this open coffin
Lying still in bed
with eyes tightly closed
absolutely dark
nothing but dark
the world is in silence
heartbeats sound like thunder
blood rolling angrily in the vein
I am wildly alive
yet dead

Beautifully described m&m
Thanks. M.E.
Good write m and m. Even in the dark the light will be there.
Thanks, G.
Sometimes no matter what we do does not feel right, as you so eloquently write here, m&m. I like the way you used these opposites, eyes open, eyes closed, to convey the same feeling. Well done!
You are right, FP. Thanks.
Even together we are always alone....... vivid poem MM
Yes, it is the feeling. Thanks, Lorna.
Powerful punch my friend. Thank you for letting it out
Thank you for your support.
Made me chuckle, probably because I'm wide awake and regularly have trouble sleeping. Loved it!.
