Blooming_Tree - Hello Poetry

there was a moment after all those voices the room did not settle it shifted slightly as if something had passed through it and left things in motion it held a quiet gravity the air carried the cold precise scent the first snowdrop crushed just enough to feel the snap not meant to break only to touch phrases that almost became someone i stood there my shadow stopped waiting and stayed nothing ended the walls surrendered their white light soft like morning that does not ask somewhere a line kept forming and i did not need to finish it and i understood ( not fully but close ) what remains is what keeps becoming for a moment it felt enough

Before Time light inside me quivers. It waits for your lips to become a word, like when you shiver and there is no wind. You are the one after whom light is no longer light but a voice. We are the same glow, the same flicker, a place where time has not yet arrived. Joy recognized us by that quiet quiver, like trees in the night learning to sing as the wind dances. Between us time was born a child that still does not know it has begun.

Before Time

Before Time light inside me quivers. It waits for your lips to become a word, like when you shiver and there is no wind. You are the one after whom light is no longer light but a voice. We are the same glow, the same flicker, a place where time has not yet arrived. Joy recognized us by that quiet quiver, like trees in the night learning to sing as the wind dances. Between us time was born a child that still does not know it has begun.

Long day of being out and about, There is just one thing I'd like to do Reach home, far away from the crowd Where the memories remain, yet I am new. Ting tong The doorbell of my house mocks me A distant parcel of courtesy The doorway waits for my quiet retreat, Undo my shoes like muscle memory. Scent feels new yet bizarrely foreign. My coat rests itself on the couch. Passing the plant I'd long forgotten, Against the plastic drawer it lay slouched. Lights on, were the only sign of presence Glass on the table, left alone The bed frame grins at my worn essence The radio silent like echoes hum a monotone. The hands that chased finishing emails, Forgetting life, traded an array of means. Ticking time missing details, Voices changed and faded to steam. And in these rooms that once felt heard, Flew the mystic of a crying herd. Embracing change yet forgetting the familiar, Till my own impression became unclear.

Unheimlich (the familiar unfamilarity)

Long day of being out and about, There is just one thing I'd like to do Reach home, far away from the crowd Where the memories remain, yet I am new. Ting tong The doorbell of my house mocks me A distant parcel of courtesy The doorway waits for my quiet retreat, Undo my shoes like muscle memory. Scent feels new yet bizarrely foreign. My coat rests itself on the couch. Passing the plant I'd long forgotten, Against the plastic drawer it lay slouched. Lights on, were the only sign of presence Glass on the table, left alone The bed frame grins at my worn essence The radio silent like echoes hum a monotone. The hands that chased finishing emails, Forgetting life, traded an array of means. Ticking time missing details, Voices changed and faded to steam. And in these rooms that once felt heard, Flew the mystic of a crying herd. Embracing change yet forgetting the familiar, Till my own impression became unclear.
