London fog

Consumed in early morning mist
-Waiting-
No footsteps echo off the sidewalk.
I am alone again.


Remembering your eyes,
your voice, charm, everything.
-warmth-
I am crying again.

The same words resonate in my head:
This feels like a charity case... I'm sorry.
(I'm sorry)( I'm sorry)( I'm sorry)( I'm sorry)
-Stop-
Its quiet again.

London fog floats away
leaving me exposed,
open, and vulnerable to the world.
Time has decided on a new life for me:



I am free again.

  • I really rather like this poem. It deserved the gold for sure.

    The thing that threw me was the use of capitals (beginnings of lines). I did like the use of punctuation as a symbolizing change though.

    Very well written, and a piece that, while it flows, keeps an underlying current separate. The feeling is not lost to the words, as is in some case of extended metaphor.

      I realized a couple days ago that the last stanza had no capital X_X
      I will fix that


      Thanks so much for the lovely comment!!!!!!!



      • I forgot to mention: "London Fog" is also the name of my favorite Starbucks Latte. And it's what made me read this in the first place. Lol.
