No Longer Your Words Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

No Longer Your Words



No longer
No longer your words
Praise me
Lift me
In my discontent
And shrouding chill
No longer
No longer
But in the shroud of suffering
Have entered I
As a cocoon
That be too as a tomb
A cemetery of thoughts
Buried
Before birth in womb
For
The flesh that carried them
And the blood that nurtured them
Went
Went
