"We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art." Salvador Dalí


Sitting with an expressionless face

I look at others and wish I were them

The pillows are sinking in, laying in agony

I want it to rain

To let the pain rinse away

And as I notice this sunshower 

I wish I could climb towards the sun

To take away its brightness

And as the nights comes

Let the moon infuse the pinch of light it has

So that someone or something below can look up at the sky

And know there is an imbalance in the world

To have someone notice something is wrong.


The author's comments:

I honestly stay up some nights and I know nothing else helps me sleep well like writing does, when I crumbled all my drafts into one I couldn't stop and I knew that there was something there. My writing became noticed by my creative writing teacher and now I am here submitting this poem I wrote in half an hour on a sunday night. I hope people understand that they need to be noticed by people surrounding them, that it shouldn't be okay to have all these untold bad thoughts and feelings inside their heads.
