Stellar

Stellar

A Poem by Zakari Schmidt
"

Thoughts from a distance

"
Smoke in my eyes,
you are on the other side
Thank god or whatever
we never talk to each other
Lifted to your face,
go blow your smoke in outer space
Thank god or whatever
Eternity won't last forever

If you could step into the sky
how far would you go beyond
what you could describe
If you float away
then I will tell you goodbye
To me you'll always be, stellar

Lifted to your grace
Go blow your smoke in outer space
and think about the worth
of your silence in the universe
I heard it's cold up there,
enough to hit you like a breath of fresh air

Lots of good vibes with this one.. I'm feelin' it!

Such beautiful imagery, you really stole my soul and made me feel small.

"If you could step into the sky, how far would you go beyond what you could describe?" - Very thought provoking! Thanks for this :) *fist bump*

another one that has a powerful ending.. I love the ending... jeeez.. makes me wish I had come up with it.. this one made me giggle again.. love the snarky tone... love the repetition in this one, really reinforces the message and adds to the power of the last stanza which packs quite a punch... well done, I say!!

I really enjoyed this poem. The rhyme scheme is perfect I do not think I would change a thing. This seems like a really eloquent way to tell someone to f**k off lol, please excuse my language but that is what I get from this. Really enjoyed it. Great Write!
