[bodytext] => she sits on the sofa in her living room her favorite beer in one hand, bottle of xanex in the other he sits in a chair on the other side of the room with his remote in hand, carelessly flicking through channels want a beer she asks, no answer no indication that he hears her she opens her bottle of small white pills pops one in her mouth and chews, numb to the bitterness she chews another and absently wonders how many are left her interest not enough that she would count, there’s enough cheers lover, she says, no answer tips her beer and swallows some down close your eyes to the tears let the dream carry you far, far away close your eyes to the fear feel yourself flying far, far away she washes down her last pill with her last sip of beer and lies down on the sofa, good bye dear, she says he lifts his hand and flicks the channel again, no answer no need to hide the pill bottle she thinks, no need at all and she smiles knowing she won’t see the morning close your eyes to the tears let the dream carry you far, far away close your eyes to the fear feel yourself flying far, far away he turns off the set tired of flicking through channels with nothing to watch he gets out of his chair and heads down the hall he comes back with a blanket and gently covers her kisses the top of her head and wonders what dream left the smile on her lips then he heads down the hall to his bed close your eyes to the tears let the dream carry you far, far away close your eyes to the fear feel yourself flying far, far away [comments] => 6 [counter] => 212 [topic] => 32 [informant] => painted_echos [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
