Out Of Play-Pretend Poem by Janine Alyssa Navarro

Out Of Play-Pretend



Borrowed time
seemed as significant
as perfume sprayed
on the palm of my hand.

Is the end near?
But I don’t think
I’m frightened;
the cars sped by for tomorrow.

Define falling out and behind
the chimes ring within,
they sound kind
but I feel a subtle hurt.

Waiting to divide
the piano piece we made,
say you’re going to die;
I’m just out of play-pretend.
