Everything Slowed Down

by Raychil   Sep 6, 2008


Dull, dull dull
What has my life come to?
Too tired to do much of anything
And I feel that I have begun to
Fade

Crack, crack, crack
I feel my mind is slipping
And with no one to keep me steady
How do I keep from tripping
Myself?

Thump, thump, thump
I can hear my eyelids blinking
My body feels so heavy
I know I'm only sinking
Deeper

Beat, beat, beat
My heart is barely going
And though its still alive
I can tell its slowing
Still.

    Good good good.

    I like it.

    You chose well when deciding to use that particular form for this poem.
    The repeated words work well to emphasize what follows them, and they give the poem an interesting rhytm. Not your best, but well worth the read.

    cheers from an uninspired writer
