The Outsider Poem by Memories And Hope

The Outsider

Rating: 5.0


Nights never end,
the sun has forgotten me,
the breeze that blew from the sea,
now avoids my house.

The parrots that cavorted
on the thin wire outside,
seem to have found
a new friend.

Everyday,
The person 3 inches way from me,
Crushed against my body in the local,
Avoids my gaze.

The networking sites
Refuse my registrations
Error (477)
Blinks and scalds my retina.

I stare night and day
At the blank face of my mobile
It remains forever
Out of Network Coverage.

The milkman
Skips my doorstep
Black tea
Is my fate.

The waves
The endless bits of sand,
No longer
Mark my passage.

I no longer exist for others
Cant be seen
Or heard
Only read. Perhaps.

As bleak and sad as this is, i do believe truth be known, that everyone on this site, at least at one time can identify with this! This is a great little write with a big message of aloness! A ten! Theo
