Let Them Talk.....FIAF #42


















realizing I'm sleepwalking

taking chances,
weaving possibilities.....making myself satisfied
for as long as it lasts
Days here are numbered anyway
.......why would anyone wanna stay
where they're not wanted?
Let them talk
I can't help but stare
and scheme

trying so hard in public to hide
echoes of laughter
 thinking

they talking about me

  1. If you can't stay there, where CAN you stay, eh? A very haunting piece, Joyce!

  2. Kae....I don't know, but when I read the question it was haunting in itself.....it took on so many levels, as when I look at a house and see so many depths in it....like who's there, who supposed to be there...who is leaving, etc etc etc and I went with what was on my heart at that moment...

    Hope you liked it. I think the limited words make you want to impact the ones you do use....lol thanks for this challenge! ready for another one...

  3. ferioliv when I woke, it was more of waking to reality and not from sleep, as each question made me want to write more...a house. a home.....so different

  4. a wordsmith...not scary...just makes you think on more than one level. How many times a day do you walk into your house and think nothing of it? Try thinking...what if you weren't going to your house, and what if you didn't live there....or supposed to be there.....or they did a twilight zone on you when you walked in...lol

    thanks for taking a read...:)
