Poetry

I am a stargazer, Tracing constellations Through galaxies of free floating thought, Distilling the contents of my scattered mind Into clearer images, And painting them across the insides Of my night-dark eyelids. ~~~~~~~~~~ HIGHEST RANK: #118 (6/20...

Did You Just Say?

Everything drops away

                              
Hushed numbness in the air

                              
And buzzing in my ears

                              
My heart pounding out a funeral march

                              
My brain, firing on all circuits

                              
Fails, refuses, to comprehend

                              
Did you just say

                              
You love her?

                              
I am mute,

                              
For how now can I ever say to you,

                              
What you just said to her?

                              
I walk away

                              
To my heart pounding out a funeral march.
