Pavement

An odd little poem.

Here I

Walk

On the

Pavement

 

My friends

Are

Ahead, chatting

Along

 

And they

Shall never

Know about

My fears

 

The fear

Of abandonment

Hidden in

My eyes

 

And if

They ask

I shall

Lie

 

I don't

Want them

To

Hurt

 

But I

Won't be

Able to

Hide it forever

 

One day,

Someone will

Leave, and

I'll cry

 

I shed

A single tear

For thinking

Of these thoughts

 

Here I

Walk

On the

Pavement

 

And I

Wonder why

I haven't

Yet cried.

"An odd little poem" is in my opinion a perfect description of this piece. Its elegant in its simplicity. Its forthright yet subtle. It is emotional while being detached. Overall, an intriguing effect.
