Calm
Eyes snap open, alarm!
Someone else's voice, a calm.
The light of the daytime gets me in such a state
I'm barely me anymore.
The grass beside the sidewalk bleeds greasy
Allergies where I walk.
Why am I bored? Am I intelligent, am I so rubbed
raw of my own sensibility?
Can I distinguish between these two things?
Thinking is only necessary because of the love
I have for you in the first place.
Do the cars park there because I hate them
And feel there are too many of them, like humans?
One car for every person leaves me feeling
They all are so selfish. It is not necessary.
Will meat help me think? An idea!
I will write of misery. Then occasionally
There is a big calm. It is when I hear your voice
And it soothes me as water soothes stones.

Such emotion and a very suprise ending, beautifully done also bittersweet, stones aren't usually soft. 🌹 I see you Rory.
Little change at the end, have another quick look. Thank you, as always, for your feedback
Ah, so I was right, this is beautiful. Now it makes me smile, and yes calming. 🌹
Too kind to me you are
Oh...the someone who calms troubled waters! We all need one of those! A fabulous poem. Well written and composed x
I did miss it as you said, terrific Rory. Its like being in the brain of a worn out depressed soul... maybe like my own brain ... but only you have the gift to articulate the unspeakable. I like that x
I can't find a relieved face emoji 😱
