Email Poem | Today's Poetry

 Flashback...
The word has got out -
there's a memory about -
and the flashback burns
with a vengeance...

All of the eggshells
scatter the way -
and leave me creeping
in blackness...

Figures with faces -
from far away places -
stare through me -
then pass me by...

Stealing my thoughts -
stealing my soul -
and leaving me there
to cry....

Alone - in the blackness -
I gather my thoughts -
putting them back
in my head...

Shaking like jelly -
I pick myself up -
to try and walk -
tall - again...

Joy Weare,
21st October, 2009.
