string
wired up on the wall
hot tea pushed to the point of toxic
by sugar
I知 wired again
thinking too fast, too loud
talking to myself
the room is dark, the floor is cold
the walls are gray
I知 far too old
for my delicate days
spent spinning around
the sun

this music is beating
the neighbors can hear
I know
the bass trembles through
their curtains
I知 intruding
I知 sucking down the tune
and I can稚 stop screaming
the lyrics
come on, come on, come on

no one gets it
no one cares
I want the scent of bleach
in your shirt again
mud splatters on a button down
with a vase
of sunset in your hand
because they reminded me of you
I love the way you jump when I
whisper the slightest thing
down your neck

you turned it up so loud
the seats vibrated with
the force
I am like a string, plucked
resonating with the sound

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. ﾂｩ
