Mirrors are broken
Rules are broken
Promises are broken
So am I
Hearts are broken
So am I
…
Wallet is lost
Memory is lost
Family is lost
So am I
Mind is lost
So am I
…
Babies are crying
Shame is crying
Needs are crying
So am I
Clouds are crying
So am I
…
Body is weak
Resistance is weak
Faith is weak
So am I
Men are weak
So am I
…
Glass is empty
House is empty
Soul is empty
So am I
Thoughts are empty
So am I
…
Battery is dead
Ideas are dead
Chester is dead
I will be too
Hopes are dead
I will be too

This is really cleverly written. I loved reading this:)

I am a prosaic type and poetry rarely speaks to me. When it does, I’m not sure I hear what I’m supposed to hear. I console myself by thinking that the power of poetry allegedly lies in its ability to invite various interpretations. What I just read gave me goosebumps! The staccato pace makes it as powerful as a hammer blow and the desolation that pours from it is gut-wrenching. Of course, I could be reading it all wrong. Anyway, I’m awed!
Oh, and I came here to thank you for reading one of my posts and giving it your stamp of approval. It’s highly appreciated. Stay creative and make it to that 1 billion mark 🙂
