92) whispers and away (blitz poem)

151 25 22
                                        

silent my song

silent the whispers

whispers of ghosts

whispers for wasting

wasting away

wasting my young years

years gone by

years done for trying

trying it out

trying but not quite

quite there yet

quite a way away

away with me now

away with this

this is what makes us girls

this is it gold and pearls

pearls of the sea

pearls if you'll let me

me in a movie

me always made us

us against the world

us walking the water

water replenish us

water of our rivers

rivers flow through

rivers flowing past you

you lost it

you found it

it found you

it slammed shut

shut and left behind

shut it you're not kind

kind of like me

kind of like a movie

movie famous faces

movie lost its traces

traces back to you

traces take me through

through the looking glass

through the mirrors fast

fast like the day

fast forever stay

stay as you are

stay if you please

please oh please

please take me away

away forever

away for today

today...

forever...
