Untitled Poem by Angelique Wright

Untitled



Petrified Night
Why do you leave me here all alone
starving for the sun
even a cloud
a star
to make you seem not so close?

You strangle me
into sleep.

Wake Up!
I tell myself

But not aloud
because your dark hand
is over my mouth.

So I kick
But my feet can't breathe for me
And I am Still.

Daylight, you came too late.
