Eclipse

Cannot recognise the sky
Blazing pale green
Cannot recognise that sun
I've never seen.
Cannot feel the breeze
that blew away
Cannot hear the birds
that flew away.
Cannot find the key
I threw away
Cannot leave the ghost of yesterday
Cannot mend that page I tore
Cannot recognise me anymore.

Beautiful. And echoes with my current situation and mood.

Hmmm, this is why I love the internet. The ability to find someone who gives voice to my innermost thoughts.

"Cannot find the key

Life makes us feel so helpless sometimes.

Beautiful words.

Empty, yet full. Does that make any sense?
