So instead of actually being productive and working on my poetry final, I ended up just reading through some old poems, written in a time I can hardly remember.
I know I have mentioned it before, but sometimes when I re-read things I have written I have to wonder, "What was I thinking?"
In this specific instance, I had re-read this poem several times prior to this evening and wondered what on earth it meant. How could I not remember what the poem was supposed to mean?! I wrote it!!
Tonight I got it. All of the sudden, it all just clicked and I realized what it was.
Can you figure it out?
" Watch
His Wide Face
Full of Answers
You Don't Want to See.
Time
Stands Still
When Holding
His Hands Can't
Hold on Forever-
He'll Simply Break.
Fly
By Without Notice
Ignore his warnings
He only ever Screams
How much you
waste away. "
I really like. "He only screams how much you waste away."
I'm all about endings, and that is a beautiful ending.
I haven't felt like I've had a good night's sleep, regardless of the amount of sleep, since I came to college three years ago. So that really hit home for me.
