...Lost In Time |

Lost In Time With music to drown out my thoughts and the moon watching overhead memories began to lose their meaning. I gave my heart to the breeze and painted over myself in new, allowing nothing to interfere in time. Constant are my thoughts, always words to pacify me, cleanse, healing the self-esteem: "I am sometimes in awe of my acomplishments while always knowing, my best is still to come and I rest, assured in tomorrow, that will be." With each stroke, I cover my anger, my hurt streaking for one more coating, tears wetting the wet, waiting to dry. The air warms, touches my cheeks, dries the tears as my eyes seek out the old beneath, as another layer is placed on top. Traffic drones by, a blending buzz, a humming in tune, as my mind recalls the words and my voice sings out what use to be. The phone rings, the hammers pound busses unload, as this day begins it's end and I hear nothing but my past, See nothing but my future and in my present, I am in between, and lost in time... ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 05-01-2001).] |

The complexity of peeling away layers makes for good poetry, I am only sorry I felt that this was the basis of this piece which was very well done. Thank you for a good read. Please visit me at my new homepage: |
