I sent you post cards

A Poem by terry smith


counted 
every 
second 
of 
those 
six 
months 
as 
if 
each 
one 
would 
be 
my 
last 

the 
echos 
of my 
silent 
screams 
rang out 
like 
mission 
bells 
driving my desire 
to 
kiss 
the 
razer 
blade 
like 

long 
lost 
lover 


time 
stood 
still 
to 
keep 
watch 
for 
me 
just 
in 
case 
you 
called 
but 
you 
never 
did 

i've 
gotten 
used 
to 
the 
sound 
of 
wet 
skin 
on 
rubber 
I sent 
you 
post 
cards 
written 
in 
seamen 

blood 
....tell 
me 
did 
you 
read 
them

thanks....my poetry has been all over the map lately
-- wow... this is crushing... and the image is one that i have never ever read... p.s. i once waited for someone for more than six years... i grew old without growing old... stranded in one moment of time... it was bad...
