Literature Text

tonight, i am not able
to greet the stars with
my fingertips

tonight, i am not able
to sleep with silence
in an empty bed

tonight, the walls seem
closer and oxygen becomes
a bittersweet memory of feeling

tonight, i'm coloring the walls
black and hanging curtains
to conceal myself from the
moon, to isolate our
beautiful memories.
tragic, i must say.

I really like this poem. I think, unlike the others I have read, this is a deep poem, I think the length might have something to do with that. Could also be that I especially connect with the second stanza right now.

I don't like the last stanza as much, because some of it seems mystified, but, I do really like the last line.

You seem to have a fascination with stars eh? It seems to be a recurring theme in your poetry. Most interesting.


Very familiar feeling here. I really like this
