feeling lost within
empty echoes rebounding
hollow mind needs filled
imagination stagnates
film on immobile water
growing thicker daily
polluting with decay
suffocating what lies beneath
something needs to enter
breaking the surface
creating those ripples
that invigorate life
waiting for the splash
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
