Hold me

Contributed by feathercut on Monday, 26th July 2004 @ 03:01:02 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Hold me

i,
pick the scabs
scrape the surface,
screaming for whats underneath
the time,
glowing like a tv light
i am what i am beneath me
what is this?
lonely bright
i see you!
you dont see me
flourescent moon,
sell me quickly
never full and
hanging empty


Hold me up
Hold me up
Hold me up
hold me......

The topic demarcation allows people browsing poems to find out a little more of the poem's meaning.

What does this one mean?

I get the impression that by your name, it is about cutting, or (of scabs) a return to self-harm in some way. I like the way you used the glow of a television's radioactivity / moon in association with the lonely effusiveness, to allude to a reclusive, part-blind self-reference.

That's what I read (this time round), at any rate. I would have made a completely different kind of stab in total darkness, had I no topic (or if it were miscategorized) to go by.

Keep writing.
