Not A Word

by BECCA lessTHANthree   May 23, 2007


I'm lying on this muddy ground,
As the rain slides off me,
I'm looking up and soaking in,
This grayness that surrounds me.

The trees are tall and overpowering,
Drooping with my sadness,
Enjoying pain in where they are,
Entertainment; in my madness.

Like dry leaves floating on a pond,
My memories are cracked and dead,
I hear you voice, but not a word,
Of all those things you said.

There are no words, but there is sound,
That lingers loudly in my mind;
And pain that sits, and torments me,
For a reason I cant find.

But still I know its you who caused this,
these sounds are yours, its clear.
If only I knew what you said,
Or how it is I got here.

So if you plan to leave me here,
And to mess with my head,
At least be fair, give me a chance,
And tell me what you said.

Cause, what ever those words were,
They're killing me inside,
And if I were to die today,
I think I should know why.

    Your third stanza and your very last line were my favorite things about this poem! The whole piece had this Sleepy Hollow feel (not that I was a fan of the movie or story) but it gave off that creepy eerie feeling and I liked that! It was cool!
