A Stranger's Heart

by Baby Rainbow   Sep 22, 2015


I have been living
in a coma of denial
and I am finally waking up,
but I wonder if I
have been asleep too long
to ever recover,
because I am not the girl
I used to be,
and I feel like I'm living
in a stranger's heart
without a home.

    I am with Ben on this one I also like the structure and layout of the poem and the meaning as well. I think when we lose someone close to us, it brings up denial, like nothing happened at all. It is sad when we do lose that person close to us. The simplicity of this poem works well in my opinion. You didn't need to say much here, to get your point across. I like the wording you have used here as well. "coma of denial and finally waking up" work well together. Sometimes it does take years to come to our senses and wake up from the depression and all the negative emotions that we go through. Overall The poem sends a great message of sadness, a lot of people can relate to this, because we have all experienced pain. 5/5

    I love the layout of this one and the idea that you can be so long asleep, too much time has passed for you to cope and you're a stranger to yourself.
