Notes About The Poem

Image result for alone by the sea

Not One Cares

I coil in bed as twilight swirls in dim of hours 
Raking this womb , pained by angst --
While I  transcend  earth’s noise , I am alone 
In gilded light  of an evening so restless--
Hushing mild whiffs, bleak and intolerable :  

Then, led back  to soiled pillows
While dusk bathes a soul without sweet quiet;
As floats of sobs wail for some comfort                                                     
That my wails reach heaven... yet not one cares 
For a lone soul  needing a warm embrace
On this day, our tenth year of togetherness.

How the chill pierces the marrow
When all that this moment needs is a voice,
A human link, just this time... but then, no one cares

The ocean waves wash the shore preparing the ground for your imagination. Very well penned with good use of metaphors that bring the essence of your feelings to the surface like so much drift wood scattered by the waves. Emile. #7

Absolutely beautiful Nette. This poem brings a chill as I can feel the desolation and the need. A dark tinted piece that really touched me.

i really like this one, nette, this darker tone is a good direction for you...the line "somewhere, a cloud turned violet" is excellent, and the opening line is very good, too
