The point of no return

0 posted 2004-09-07 01:31 PM


I know, in time,
you'll walk away.
Pretend you see,
Just LOOK at me.

You'll shake your head,
cluck disapproval,
Throw in a gift,
arrange my removal.

Leave me lying on the floor,
forgotten.
Is this what life is for?

And I'll fade away
in No one's memory.
An undecipherable stain
in white fiber, purity.

A bothersome spot,
a blight in the rug.
That's what I was,
unsightly.

*More a rant that just happened to rhyme on occasion than a poem.*

It's not the letting go that hurts, it's the holding on.

Apparently not, but hey, at least seeing there are replies makes me feel better.  And it's perfectly normal for creative people to talk to themselves, and hear voices.  Did you know that?

Pain, sometimes a "rant," as you call it, is the truest form of poetry there is.  In fact, there is no sometimes, it simply is.  I thought it was truthful and very elegantly written.

So its ok to ask yourself questions and then give answers.  That is like being unable to make your mind stop thinking long enough to  sit and be comfortable.  Feel ya on that one.

You just had to throw that word purity in there, huh PBC? lol...and in the same poem as the word cluck I might add! (Which, by the way was the perfect word)
I felt this one, and it was an excellent write!

Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere
