my brain's loose change

she molds her thoughts like clay
into something more tangible
like poetry
like a song
she can sing
when she's walking alone

the snowflakes fall
on her brown hair
and she melts
from the cold

she's a backwards girl
with backwards thoughts
thinking she could
write
something
awe-inspiring

but she can't

so she melts
at the touch of a
snowflake...
her words just a puddle
on the ground
you all walk on...

I just had to write *something* so don't base your opinions on my writing off of this poem... *sighs*

  • that was great
    There have been shows where maybe the whole first half of the show my eyes have been closed. and then you'll look out in the crowd and there'll be somebody totally lost in their head, in exactly the same place you're in. That, to me, is the essence of music

  • Sheesh! What are you sighing about girl? That was lovely! :)
