REMINDING ME tearing the skin around the nail a satisfying bit of pain lingers there from that and reminds me of the reasons behind my anxious feelings the drop of blood that stains and drips from finger to the floor another blatant sign of the way i feel tonight the sting of water and soap and the gentle scrubbing i give the bandaid placed around the wound itself represents the string around the finger never able to clear the tremors from my shaky mind because of a nibble taken from the nail and the pain that lingers still with every movement of my hand by Sheryl McCurdy |
POETRY |
POETIC HUMMING Words fall just Out Of Reach Random plucking of the heart strings Strumming up uncoordinated ramblings Perpetually Stretching Attempting To pen Harmonious melodies By Sheryl McCurdy |
LIPS UNHEARD What if my breath were a string of pearls to your ears gliding smoothly as a rivers babble across soft curried stones would the door behind which you reside unlatch crack and open wide letting me in would you then hear me speak or will you remain deaf hearing silence watching these lips moving By Sheryl McCurdy |
