Restlessness Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi

Restlessness

Rating: 5.0

I see them when there's no one there
But I know it's my imagination running away
Trying to never forget
Their eyes appear following me
Again, it's just remembrances
That keep tricking time and space
To hold them
And them holding me
This is the reason why I cry at night
Their touch and voices
Echoes through the night's realm
Throwing my mind in turmoil
As I sleep through the restlessness
I hold my breath

A very relatable poem especially with our departed loved ones. So deeply poignant. I could feel the same, LeeAnn.

This is brilliant, LeeAnn. This can evoke nostalgia, ...or fear, or despair. This verse goes to myfavourites.
