Flash Poem : Distortion

Dreams dive unto the night. Distorted imageries, fragments of fiction that never was. Never will be. I have walked million miles with the moon to reach out to you, to your universe of blissful songs. Perhaps you will wake up to my despondence. Not once but everytime I cry out for you. Hold me into your embrace of stars. But you have only echoed the silences making me believe once again that there never was and there never will be.

  1. I really like this! The image complements your words very well and the form suits the mood very well.

  2. Sad and moving. Maybe a tale of unrequited love.

  3. How well you have expressed a distance that is cold and uncaring.

  4. That's a terrific example of a flash poem!

    It might be a longing for the love of a particular person, but I 'hear' it as the yearning for connection with God, and the doubts that arise in us as to whether God even exists.
