Poem -

oFF keY

she sits for houRs sometimes
I sEE her...
she sTares blankly to space
how I feAr her...

she is keePer of nightmaRes
a Knower of dreams
she sits grubbY in
nightclothes composinG

new sCreams

her eyes have nO colour
they no longer know suN
When I feeL her drift by, I rise,
tRy to run, but

TheSe legs will not move and
a panic descenDs as she
GiftS me her work and I
cAnnot pretenD that I no
longer know hER for she
looks just liKe meย and my
voice finds its pitcH in the
Opera of shE, and I'm rabbit in
headliGHt and dreAdful in
bLeak and my soul breakS to
glass and my heart cannoT
sPeak for the music is
soUlless completely oFF keY
and so wretchedly chiLLingly
utterly ......WE.....

Marion, loved it!
Loved the way your poem beats and flows to it's concluding surprise end and lovedย  the line 'In the opera of she' among many more.๐Ÿ’™
And a superb title that is mirrors your fine poem.
Five shining stars and pinned as well for another and deserved reread.
Thank you for writing and sharing your poetry gift and I wish you well.
