Poems (Crawford/Nagi)
by Dreamwalker
Static
I.
Man sits
looks
gazes
Heart beating
yearning
aching
Emotions
trapped
unspoken
Love unrequited
Love denied
II.
Boy sits
looks
gazes
Dried tears
scarred heart
soft sighs
Emotions
trapped
unspoken
Love unrequited
Love denied
III.
They sit
looking
gazing
An inch
a yard
a mile
Confessions
remain
unspoken
Love unrequited
Love denied
Steps
IV.
Boy
softly
whispers
pretends not to speak
V.
Man
patiently
listens
pretends not to hear
VI.
Hands
reach out
blindly
pretending not to see
VII.
Fingers
twining
in the dark
VIII.
Waiting...
...waiting.
Notes:
Umm...yeah...that's it. My pathetic attempt at poetry. It's supposed to be a series of sorts but I suck at this so I don't know..it's kinda hanging in there. I'd like to believe the poems form a story. Titles refer to both poetic form and content.
Can't stand flames. Bad for my self-esteem. Creative criticisms are accepted though: [email protected]
