Falling Out of time

She fell from time

Lost behind the many masks
worn to protect a fragile heart
finds her falling out of time
her voice silenced
seeking solace, she does not find
instead...
oblivion she's found
no hope, nor sorrow
no joy, nor pain
just nothing...
she stumbles
seeking a way out
back to reality
where time matters
as falling out of time
slowly steals
her life's essence

               

Author's Note

Fear leaves me lifeless
facing pain and sorrow
breathes life within me

as falling out of time
slowly steals
her life's essence

Deep lines. I really like this poem. It would probably make a good song. :)

Just goes about the lines...
as your Author's note reveals...
from start to finish...
but time is just a measurement...
no real reality to it...

[Kellyrose]

True, there is no real realty to time; just trying to express how when one hides behind a mask time is suspended as there is no growth, no life...

[Glen Yumang Manese]

seems like if you are standstill and another person is moving...one moving is going with time...the other is just sitting and dying...of course...that's a scientific term...
