A Poem by Kelli Wyatt

Saturday, February 28, 2009

The passing days
Not withstanding
The necessity to pave
A path gently walked
What cannot be changed

All fires doused
The warmth
Described in textbooks
A history long gone

The chanding winds
Bring misfortune
A bitter tone
A loss of breath
With no air to breathe

A friendly smile
Just a pathetic attempt
To revive you

A doubted heart
Repeatedly stabbed
Dripping with pain
Blood lust for its own

Telepathic thoughts
Moving unsound object
Beyond reach

A melodramatic tune
Whispering condolences
Breaks you

"This is wise, I like the the form and how it brings out the clarity of the meaning-
particularly the precise wording, the depth is what intrigues me most. great job!
