Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Coma

*Image of Vulnerability by The Conversation.

Coma

Endeavoring eyes opened
to the nothingness ere it.

Harkening labyrinths aches
to the silence yond.

Alone spoke I and
loneliness echoed
in faint whispers.

There remains
a trace of me
airing silently

the breath of
belonging.

Mark Toney June 25, 2022 at 8:47 PM William, your poem was very emotional for me since several family members have experienced comas through the years. Your brevity of expression is very effective. Congratulations on your win on Mile 4 of my 2022 Poetry Marathon Contest. Mile 5 has already started! William Kelii Kekaula June 26, 2022 at 12:21 AM Mark, an uncle, my mom's cousin-in-law, was my first experience before it had befallen my mom shortly thereafter, hoping she'd have beaten the stats. Thanks for my placement my friend, Aloha~William.
