Listening To The Stones Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi

Listening To The Stones

Rating: 5.0


Alone in my apartment, listening to the Stones
I wondered what went wrong
I tried to write you a verse that would made you stay
But I couldn't find the words
You left the apartment early this morning
For you needed to catch a flight
I woke up too late to make yr coffee and eggs
Guessing that you wanted to break free
You went like a thief in the night
Stealing my prized possesion
I rose from my bed and cried in the shower
No one could hear the sobbing through the water
Now, it's the afternoon, as I am still listening to the Stones
Mourning the loss of my everything

It's no Stone who wrote this! We feel your pain and the open abyss.

LeeAnn, My first 3 wives (3 divorces) all told me that I was their prized possession, their 'everything', as they plotted my downfall. This one (4th) calls me a 'little ', so ..(cont.)

Sad indeed. I do not think it is your personal experience, though. A well-written piece on the chosen theme
