the light in the hall

Lying in the darkness of a room
Knees drawn to chest trying to hide
pressed up to the wall like a child to her mother,
my skin aches from emptiness’ cold caress.
From the crack under the shut door
i see a light go on in the hall;
And i close my eyes against the glow,
pretending not to notice
Because i know:
It does not shine
For
me.

| I like the style you used to write this poem. My only criticism, and perhaps you might have given this some thought, is the last line. With the diminishing line structure, perhaps it might have fit in a bit better if you'd appended the word "me" to the end of the line before it to make a two word line, polishing off what, otherwise, can be called a very good poem. I'm glad I read this one, and hope to read some more. |
