It's Not Over

I told myself I'd stand my ground,
But the walls have crumbled now.
There's a face in the sky's reflection,
And the memories are pouring down.
Today has been the question--
Tomorrow is the focus.
Direction is merely symbolic,
For I'm an empty canvas.
There's an echo through the window,
Arriving in the breeze;
The messages unfold,
And continue to the sea.
Without a strong connection,
There's nothing left of me.
All of the images are distorted,
But it's just a hologram.
As the pictures become faded,
The truth comes to attack.
When the past becomes outdated,
It all comes running back.

One thing that I love about your poems is that I never know where I'm going with them. The endings are always abrupt but perfect and clean, unexpected. This poem is one of my favorites of yours. Well written. --Natalie.

There seems to be a lot of confusion and sort of like trying to find yourself. I like this poem a lot. Well written.

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
