It feels like it’s over
it has felt this way for awhile
as if the letters between A and Z
are tired of being called upon
to sit next to each other
in a book that no longer wishes to open
but refuses to close
and that is the scariest part of this story
how it continues without a plot
even after the final word meets its period
so on behalf of the curious and the empty
I must know if this is it
is this all my eyes were meant to see
just tell me
whisper it in my ear as I sleep
write it in the stars across the sky
spell it out in my morning cereal
just tell me
what now
what am I supposed to do now
because it feels like it’s over
and it has felt this way for awhile.

I had to read it so fast because I couldn’t hold my breath for so long! Love the no punctuation. A breath of fresh air!

Gosh, I wish I could still write poetry (I haven’t had inspiration strike in a while). This is amazing!

How did you get it to look like it’s snowing on your homepage? I’m a little afraid to ask, in case you don’t know what I’m talking about, lol.

Haha it does that every December (though it might not have last year). It’s a WordPress thing. I didn’t do anything lol. I think in 2013 there was a button I clicked for it but I haven’t seen it since.
