A Villanelle to Verify
Do I make sense?
I’m speaking but
Can you hear me?
It seems like I’m speaking silence
I suppose I am since, wait--
Do I make sense?
My words are easily misinterpreted
Even now, you’re listening but
Can you hear me?
Tangled tangents taken
From the context of my mind
Do I make sense?
I don’t. Of course the sound waves are reaching you
Still, I have to ask again to be sure
Can you hear me?
L’appel du vide is all I hear
I want to know you’re not the same
Do I make sense?
Can you hear me?
even i didn't understand what this poem was supposed to mean for a while. it took me about a month to realize why i wrote it.
