I believe

January 27, 2014

If the stars disappeared

And all the clouds ran away from here

Wont everything appear,

to be greener on the other side

If theres no life here ?

and Aint no light here ?

can we survive here ?

Is it right here?

If the ground starts rising

And the sun stops providing

And there's ruin in our gardens

A glitch in our horizon

That's the earth rewinding , reminding

That other entities live beyond our reach

Our mental capacity has muted their speech

So we only listen when we speak

A tale of the weak

the wisdom we seek

Is hidden in the silence of a letter in a word.

unKnown.

That's hardly spoken , and taken as absurd

A clever voice awoke in my dreams

If I could explain what that really means

I'd write a book that reads

Every drop the pen bleeds

capture every thought that thought to leave

I'd believe

Something wrong with this poem?
