missing you

rake apart my scalp and lay me bare,
there,
between the hollows and the screams;
dreams upswept sleeping here.
hair and skin and teeth and bone,
bound as brittle powder, blown
across a scattered, wayward wind.

Please tell me what you think

    Screaming, is what first enveloped my senses... I was overwhelmed with the sensation of someone screaming, and sensing the throes of ones death, even or all be it, mental. write on!

    What a talent!

    From one Stephanie to another this is awesome poetry. One of the best I've read. It feels really raw which only adds to it. Brilliant! Stephy x

    I'm a big fan of the short forms and this is a great one. Very stark image.

    Long awaited words from Ms. Sunshine. This is stark and cold, like a wind swept hill barren of the faintest growth. There's a longing here that calls out of its own accord. Even the wind is wayward...
