Doppleganger

by Zeus   Aug 21, 2009


"Imagine oblivion.", he said to me,
With a dead stare of blackness in his eye
That I could not fathom or comprehend;

Thoughtlessly into his stare I ponder,
Lost with wonder inside a universe
That is unique-- without a single star--
Without ideas burning brightly, and I
Float through this space trying to answer
The question that transcended my mind
Into this stupor, into this oblivion;

Falling back into my own, I reply
Before the dark image on a glass wall,
"Imagine oblivion" and walked away.

    You should take out And walk away in the last line but thats just my opinion

    The only thing I would change is at the end don't put "and walk away". Just leave it. But it was great

    That was really good. It's the kind of poem that makes you think. I read it twice and, for 15 mins after, my mind was in a daze just running the poem over in my mind. I really enjoyed it.
