This is a poem that I wrote yesterday and i would like to get some feedback on it if it's possible. Thank You.
There is one sad note that I can always find when looking into his eyes. Behind them one very sad tune is playing. As if there was a vibrating violin hammering away, Behind his sight. My voice is the cheerless note that I spy briefly when looking away from them. As I open my mouth with even the smallest sigh, I know that he is dying. Together we compliment each other and we are one anothers everything. At once there exists a conflict which isn’t music. Between us is a gulf neither of us can cross over to get to the other. I have a means by which to express myself. His medium is connected to an education he finds it difficult to utilize. Instead he uses his words as a substitute. Each letter is a declaration of a tormented expression of his mind. Silence is something he cannot savor however, he may try. A trembling enters his voice and as a tear begins to fall for me, The tone behind his eyes escapes and enters my soul. His anguish has me staggering in suffering, and then I take my last breath. We become a pulverized swelling of the ground. Nothing but that one miserable note plays itself out. A stop to how we used to harmonize in synch, and a rhythm brought to a close. Over the two of us a hush comes down taking away all light. A separation of song and composition. The risk of his melody fights for entrance behind his lids but can find no way back in. Worthlessness in a field barren of the music of leaves, blown in the wind. |
