Alone,
Watching myself fade away
into the mist
Timesing sixes by sevens
Making castles in the air,
Ignoring smiles and chatter.
Univited, uncaring.
Or at least pretending.
Her wings, broken.
her smile, fading.
her life, lost
To life.
Alone,
Watching myself fade away
into the mist
Timesing sixes by sevens
Making castles in the air,
Ignoring smiles and chatter.
Univited, uncaring.
Or at least pretending.
Her wings, broken.
her smile, fading.
her life, lost
To life.
By univited, do you mean
Again, I'm just floating
Again, I'm just floating around, picking out pieces and commenting.
This is extremely short, and doesn't really go anywhere. There is also a perspective change here, which doesn't really work.
Perhaps you could rewrite this. I don't understand how chocoholic8 above has deemed this worthy of a four-star vote, but each to their own.
i need more!
it seems like there are two people in the poem
you could develop the two of them and how they relate to one another in a few more stanzas.
like i said before, i like your style, i just wish i could see more of it!!
