Notice
does no one notice?
that i’ve cried all day.
that i’ve lied the the entire time.
that i’m scared out of my mind.
did you notice?
that i’m lost.
that i’m cold.
that i’m alone.
how did know one notice?
not one silent scream.
not one distant person.
not one crying eye.

i walk with ishmael
Too many tears have beeen shed
and yet now i seem to long for them
i try to invoke sorrow
so that i might taste the bitter comfort
but it, like the tears, will not come
is there anything worse than emptiness?
a vast, widening abyss
a place where pain is welcome
and seeps into you, invigorating, gracious
like rain on parched earth
a chasm of desolation
a vacancy in your soul
it is a hollowness, a nothingness, an obscure eclipse
that makes you ache for misery
who might awaken something inside
and your covetous eyes
linger on on darkness
searching for something in the gloom
but woe will not comply
will not condesend, will not exploit
and spirt is just a distant murmur
and echo in the cavity of apathy
but like warmth, it wanes
i walk with ishmael
i wrote that just for u
love, love
talia
