gone

has words for all, gather and follow,

crowd me to the corner, unseen.

what do they mean? what do they

mean? words you’ve already given,

taken, turned, used, played, bestowed,

i don’t want them. i take silence,

shelter here, covered in real. alone,

away from crowds of more to claim

you, to pull, hold, own the words.

spread your imprint, your follow,

pieces for each, exchanged for devotion,

fill you up, adore. I, alone, more, silent,

 

gone.

  1. Not only do I love this poem, I love the phrasing you use. I read the poem multiple times to catch all of the little nuances. Very nice.

    I’m a sucker for fog, a sucker for railroad tracks, and your words are musical notes played gently on a modest piano,,,I’ll definitely be back for more.

    Thank you for making my day more beautiful.
