Pronouns
What I'm Listening to:
Maybe I'm a nerd, maybe I'm not. You can be the judge of that, but I have a strong suspicion that writing a poem...and a blog post entitled "Pronouns" classifies me as a full-scale geek.But whatever you decide, try to read "Pronouns" without any sort of prejudice, academic or otherwise.
Pronouns
My skin salty and breaths coming fast
I press the phone against my jaw.
Incapable of terminating that last call.
Somehow believing that loosening my grip on the cell phone
Would mean letting go of you.
But when I finally gave up and hung up
You were still there.
No longer we or us, two broken hearts stand apart.
But quite too close for comfort.
Afterwards we'll slay the lovers in our hearts
And witness the death of a pronoun.
