pieces

She has patchwork
thoughts
random notes from her favorite song
flashbacks into whirlpool-smiles
sudden recall of instances yet to be formed
dancing her absences
through the hours
going back and forth between words and stones.
She collects
bits and pieces of spring
a happy, happy person, strong and
'well thought through'.
It must be exhausting, I say to her
this cartography of self.
She goes on coloring herself happy.

Wow! I really liked this. The end, to me, says quite a lot and has a sad feel to it. Well written and sructured.

Thanks for the read.

Another lovely poem. The beginning is the strongest part I think, these lines are wonderful:

She has patchwork
thoughts
random notes from her favorite song
flashbacks into whirlpool-smiles

as are:

dancing her absences
through the hours


the end loses me a little, but I'm not sure why, and I may just need to reread this a few times. Beautiful writing anyway.
