I am the dream
afraid to wake;
the echo of a
warped imagination.
I am what happens
when nothing happens.
I am the heart
pounding silence,
waiting,
frozen.
I am the
subtle pause,
fixed
for the
duration.
I am the
death
of progress.

i agree, this is powerful....
but the type of power you find when depths are too dark and you get pulled into the black.....a very sad place to be...

and you have written of it succinctly

excellent write, enjoyed the thoughts

sadly, 'progress'....all too often involves the destruction of something that is far more positive than what 'progress' offers

Mmm I love this. It makes me think of two lines and I quote here...

I am the alpha and the omega,
the beginning and the end.

This poem is powerful. It makes one think...what am I? If I had to describe myself what would I say? Well in my case it would probably be...

I am the worn out sneakers,
The crack in your heart...(wink!)

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

This certainly makes you sit and think a
bit...wondering which step is your last.

I fear you have written this for me
and now I'm looking over my shoulder
wondering how you know...
