Insomnia

by Madison   Apr 7, 2008


Tick- tock
time flies by
benevolent benefactor
of the sudden sunrise
entrenched memory burrowed deep
lost contacts nothing more
fretting sweat deep and cold
forget the idea of deep and wide
lord if all the simple closure
could change the way the grandfather lies
forgotten friend where have you gone
slipped between the moon and the sun
eyes wrenched open in shocked affirmation
but alas
nothing to change these wretched hands

    Strong, powerful poem. You did a great job expressing your thoughts. And the idea was really nice and not original.
    Good job.

    This is truly powerful. The whole message is portrayed excellently and your choice of words is also amazing. This poem has very natural, great flow from the beginning to the end. Refreshing read.
