POEM STARTER

Awakening

Write a poem about an awakening - it could be literal or metaphorical.

love, forgetting

wake

eyes open

come to life

what have i left?

oh my death

tear filled

destroyed

dropped

i slept

in cold peace

ignoring those outside it

those i love

so alone

broken

music

it plays

i feel empty

no apologies will fit

i shall beg

for forgiveness

stops

ink

pen crusted

it cannot write

it wont say sorry

i am frozen

dust sticks

dry

screams

of terror

from my lips

i confront my past

i dread response

come pain

shatter

leave me to my shame. let me sleep again.
