A new dawn rises

The clocks stop,
time hangs motionless,
A second lasts an eternity;
everything freezes.
A Blue light flickers, twitches and blinks,
sending an un-noticed signal
to people who just aren't there.
Two lovers pass;
entwined in happiness and grief,
holding each others souls.
Muttered, half heard, heart-felt conversations
or drunken ramblings on a cold uneventful night.
I can still smell the air;
evil, calm and unforgiving.
The stench, the rhythmic sighing of the earth,
mocking my every stride,
making me think,
making me wish.
The hum of traffic,
the empty feeling as I slip inside
the sudden rush of heat,
that wants to protect me,
that wants to consume me,
that numbs my senses,
and eases the pain.
Sinking like a stone in a stagnant pool of water
time restarts,
a new dawn rises.

Very vivid, intense pictures painted here.
And they speak- powerfully.
I think it's brilliantly done. From start to end. |
