I just want to be helpful
You're having problems and no one is around
I try to take a step closer
Time stops and thoughts strike
You're being nosey
Stop
Why are you eavesdropping
Words no longer exist
I'm opening and closing my mouth like a fish out of water
Must leave to try again another day
Elaine P Apr 2014
I have a recurring dream where I'm replaced
I made a mistake
It's already happened
Elaine P Mar 2014
I admire the way they could tell
Stories with no spine
Just an endless void of art
How believable it sounds
Shaping nothing
Into something
Changing personas
Voice, Hair, Style
The one you see on screen
Isn't the one directing
I laugh & cry
Take a sharp breath in
Because of the goosebumps
Raising all over my skin
An inspiration I hold deep
I will strive
To be just as beautiful
Thoughts after seeing a short film
