Namely Nothing Makes Sense Poem by Susan Lacovara

Namely Nothing Makes Sense

Rating: 5.0


Relish all that he was in a snow globe mirage

Accepting there was little I could do

Yesterday will yellow with time and thickened skin

Making room for mending and maybe some other miracle

On the summit of sadness a heart hardly beats

Nearer to heaven through my prayers of healing

Darkness pretends to be my friend

When the light fails to find me

Real as it was, the dream was disturbed

Everyone and everything wears a thin disguise

In the questing and questioning of a true love

No one is safe from the danger of derailment

Happy? Is that something reserved for others

Authenticity replaced by blinding lightening

Roaring of thunder where before there was song

Damned by the same hand that held onto hers

Torn seams, bare threads, ripped
