Others will seek consolation for pain,
haunting the wishbone moment,
numb to sense.
I turn into my own desolate soul, hearing myself
break apart-
unwritten
at the mental seams.
The repeated decrescendo
blasting against my ears-
screams echo and echo, echo, echo, echo,
until daylight broke.
Bless me, bless me, bless these wrists.
Mama, I think I am coming home.

thank you sara for this beautiful way of putting our words togehrter
Lovely carnival. :) Great job to everyone.
Can we do another carnival?
I think I missed it.
I have started to notice how nice it is to have concourse with other poets. I start to love comments. I am getting more interested in poetry! It cheers me up. Even if it's sad poetry! I hope we can do some more things before my Internet connection dies.
Amazing poem. This line in particular: 'screams echo and echo, echo, echo, echo' wow. The repetition of 'echo' really DOES make it echo -- the jump from 'echo AND echo' to just the listing of the words really enacts this feeling of crescendo - wonderful rhythm.
Lovely blog thanks for sharing
