Silence

Missing image
Frozen angles
of perfect imperfections
shattered into a deathly silence;
Tried escaping
but ended up tied for freak show.



Now the ricochet
of the cold snow flakes
fall, effortlessly,
needlessly.

-- my body calls after them

    Hoodwinked!

    This is simply beautiful. Your words flow effortlessly into painful images that show how the world can fall away and we can so desperately call after it to hear silence.

    I'm sorry I am late with the hoodwink, but hope you are glad for more comments!

    "Perfect imperfections" Sigh, oxymorons make my day.

    I particurally love the last stanza and last line.

    Good luck in the contest!
