Falling Awake
Poems
Oct 13
Les
In just one split of an instant
Life force entirely withdrew
With your vitality vanished
I find myself severed in two
As heavens expand between us
I fear I’ll recall less each day…
So, I think back through the senses
To keep time’s forgetting away
I’ll always smell you as diesel
From the truck you tried to repair
And later, the antiseptic
Congealing the hospital air
I can still taste the cheap cigars
We inhaled as an attempt to cope
The blandness of the Psych Ward’s meals
where you hid your disorder’s scope
I almost still hear your singing
Of single half-melodic lines
Always found it quite endearing
How you’d repeat them so many times
And, while your laughter still cuts me
It’s Your voice I try to repress
The sound of its damage haunting
Scarred, by the life support process
I still see the flash of brilliance
Intensely piercing through your eyes
But yet, with a sense of softness
When returning silent replies
And I still feel your energy
In brief moments I feel in tune
So, I remember through senses
Until we will meet again soon
