pennylane731's Diaryland Diary

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if you don't know, why would you say so?

unexpected wind
chilled the closed window
and then me

numbness to fingers
that held the miracle cure
just an hour earlier

broken heart
with buttered pasta
table for one

dry skins that cracks and flakes
begging for more
than the world can give

i'm seeing things

smoke from the invisible air
letters mixed up

i am procrastination's best friend

i can't talk now
area codes
and a struggle to explain
a silent lack of words
making me fret with itchy limbs

just one more
just one more
to forget the isolation
felt by lack of conversation

smiling the fake acoustic smile
i sing along with myself
no capitve(ating) audience

recall the inebriated singing
when i was claimed and bragged
i was triumphant and loved

i can turn my head
and look towards the beats
when i wasn't the only one proud
but i can never go back
and forwards seems an eternity away
