A Twist In My Bend

All eyes staring,
There's nothing to see.
I turn to glass,
And they see through me.
It's all let out,
My stomach's in pain.
I run away,
Though it's all in vain.
I find myself
In the strangest place;
I look in the mirror
But I can't find a face.
There's no return,
Nothing is safe.
We go circles 'round
With two roller-skates;
For the weather today,
The clouds contemplate.
Sunrise to sunset,
We carry our weight.
Life upside-down
Is a scary fate.

I'm glad you like it, and I'm even more glad that you connect with my writing. I always like writing that I connect to.

Well, Fading, I can say you have a good style, in my humble opinion. I knew you were young by your angst. Never fear, as you age, the clouds clear and you will see a face you can love in your mirror.

That made me laugh so hard--"I knew you were young by your angst." But it made me laugh in a good way. I definately agree. Now I have this silly grin and I'm laughing to myself. But I really appreciate the compliment; I always strive to have a good style.

Poetry is what is lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
