A Message To The Sentimental


The shockwave dancing in circles,
 Ripples over me.
The thoughts pass like water drops,
 Collecting to a sea.
My hand permates the mirror,
 Extending past our weave.
An image of our past,
 And a bond into our dreams.
The puddles bloom another view,
 A stationary stream.
Through the ravages of storm,
 Again I reach through seams.
With a flashlight and some faith,
 I'll dive into the deep.
I'll fight off all the current,
 Denying each defeat.
Caressed by the waters' cold,
 My heartbeat slowly stops,
With every fleeting moment,
 Connected by the dots.

(My hand permates the mirror,) - That set up a beautiful image in my mind. Was like watching a mirror's glass turn into water. Metaphorically written. I wonder if the shockwave and the ripples you speak of are emotions? (due to the title perhaps?) Interesing way you wrote this. Secretly but wide open. Enjoyed the read.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
