When You See
the heaviness
the dullness
dropping dead
in you
the silence of the mind
is a kind of thought
a feeling
a poem whose
words are
looking for you
and finding
you somewhere else
closed in some
unhappy form
sinks further in blue
calling this quietness
your music
and finding how
the broken darkness
can give shelter
calls it home.
- Dominic Alapat
