~feathered Fall~ Poem by Sinnaminsun Sinnaminsun

The distance never shows
until you hit the ground,
The answer's never heard
when questions always sound.

Love never lasts
when a heart's pumping cold,
Sealed off and beating by
a self restrictive hold.

Preaching but not heeding
as words are tossed about,
They're piling up to measure
the depth of your copouts.

Time's taking time
precious seconds tick today,
Counting down to nothing
by one's choice to waste away.
