Isolation Room 19

I am an island within an island all of my waves transferred inward. I bounce between my shores throwing sounds and retrieving feels. I am my own language, in my own book phrases long, profound and seeping with drama. And no, you will not read me well my text is vibration and out of tune to you. I am swallowed into a bubble. I have been this indestructible balloon. I will float between, above and around, but I will never be the one touching you. I am a phoenix among the dinosaurs I peer across a land of bones, as the ashes all drift down. I can rise and rise and rise But will I ever be immortalized? This is my total abandonment this is my last will and testament that I shall be forever alone... In this death as in this life as in this death.

Wow heavy poem Gina. Deeply expressed, individualism broken down beautifully, as well as the description of being somewhat of a loner. Enjoyable overall. Check out some of mine. Peace.
