Absent From The Page – Unhinged Poem 2020TOO

thunder in the sky,

rain tearing down,

I spoke the words you wanted,

I gave you the mirror,

glass upon glass,

images lost over the last,

I never meant to lie,

but the worthlessness I’ve grown into,

made the words fall out,

a darkness opened before me,

and swallowed me whole,

I wished the lie had been simple,

silent words has been said,

truth sewn into each second passed,

but the poetry that was in motion,

never let me see,

the world I was building,

was not made for me…
