my heart sinks
as the sink fills
with 8 wine glasses
6 coffee mugs
2 knives
and I’m still…
sitting with cup in hand
wafting away the smoke
engulfed in unbecoming
emotions
without you
my sink fills
as my heart sinks
and I’m still…
sunken
without you.
Oh, Kay, I am glad to hear from you. I am sad to read about this sunkenness.... heartbreaking....
ReplyDeleteHugs to you. My time as has finally arrived. In 4 days I am 4500miles to all my bloggie friends. Will be weird for some time, thinking of you as "just around the corner" xxx
strong, strong, strong,,I had to come back and read this a second time,,,
ReplyDeleteWhere have you been, I have missed you! I find this filled with heart wrenching emotion, sad as it is, it is expressed beautifully....Hugs
ReplyDeleteKay, you are!
ReplyDeleteI am very glad you're back, that you write
Thank you!
Are you sad?
Well,I know that sadness is a component of life.
Every day I say to myself that cheesecake without raisins is tasty, but with raisins tasty more.
Loving hugs.
And your words have that sunken feel to them. I am liking how this is written, how she can be read and how this feeling sinks within oneself.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't it seem Kay, as if the space of emptiness always gets replaced with something, and fullness always empties...as if they are only displaced, and replaced? Perhaps the fill and empty are not as we wish, but they are ever revolving. ((Hugs))
ReplyDeletegood to see you kay...i can feel the intense sorrow in these lines...and the emptiness of the glasses echo that of the narrator...hope the dishes get washed soon to be refilled...
ReplyDeleteYea the peope above me sums up my feelings. So ill leave it at that. Good one kay =)
ReplyDeletei feel you Kay..sunkenness is too strong to bare,loved your lines,the sorrow and the stillness..it will pass too Kay..
ReplyDeletebig hug
Merry Christmas to you :)
I smiled as I read this, even though the image and the words promote opposing feelings. Sink, sinking , sunken… so well used here. The lower the word took me, in the end after sinking all the way, I had to smile.
ReplyDeleteIts as usual strong and beautiful. I m glad to have you write this after a long long time :)
ReplyDeleteIts very strong ... the picture says it all ..you cant go deeper than this...nice to see you back.
