Conversing Contemplation With A Pen

Conversing Contemplation With A Pen

A Poem by Zhavy
"

The pen might not talk but it writes to be heard

"

Conversations with my pen

Feels like I’m talking with you

Want to know what she’s up to

But I’ve been out of the loop


We used to be so tight

Guess the distance made us loose

If I was in it for the win


Why did I lie?

How the hell did I lose?


Straying too far from the tracks

My minds off the rails

I’ve been caught in the past


Couldn’t give you too much

So I thought that I’d ask

Having happiness away

Has me feeling a ways 


Involved with all the same

No need to repeat what you say 

Memories are all I can claim 


Came to the conclusion

I could only put the blame on myself

There’s nobody else


I knew how you felt

But I really want to know how you feel 


Thought this feeling was free

But it’s been costing me sleep


A summer day scene

Turned a winter night’s dream 


I’ve been caught in-between 

Blazing heat & solid snow


Pockets elbow deep

I’m lacking change there’s only hope


Broke with a billion dreams


Barely any sleep


Never been this deep in water


Dealing with a shallow wallet


Contemplating superficial thoughts

I hope this doesn't sound too insulting, but your narrator sounds like a loser! I don't mean that as a put-down about your writing. In fact, it takes a vivid imagination to paint a word picture that incites a strong negative response like this! As an old biddy myself, I would see this jerk coming a mile away. But alas, so many hopeful young women would be taken by his zippy rhymes & what seems to be self-effacing apologies, but I don't buy this routine. This guy would be hitting Tender the day after his own wedding (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
