Poem

I haven't posted recently because I had forgotten my password. Anyway, I remembered it and figured I should post my new poem that I had posted on my poetry myspace page a couple of weeks ago ~ I hope readers enjoy it:




deafened
by: evana vleck


My poem spits back at me, melodically
as i sit and shuffle my fingers together in contorted rhythm

the varying sound of my fingers linger
and they cause my ear drums to be one with the softness of the moon
and the cascading waves that fall upon your sturdy shoulders

ever so gently
my fingers extract an emotion
and find themselves
in the waves upon your loving shoulders

deafening
struggling
hypnotically changeling

beat by beat
rhythm by broken rhythm

heart within hand
and breath...
deafening,
to my falling soul

a place where only you and i
know
