The Figure

Shadow
. . . Shadow
. . . . . . Shadow

I feel the need to protect and be brave
. . but am terrified inside.

Sinking


Sinking


Sinking feeling.

Blank mind but yet, racking my brain to find a way out.

. . . .it's so
shadowy
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . shadowy
. . . . . . . . . . . shadowy

The trampoline giving way,
not solid beneath me.

i scream.
Scream!
SCREAM!!

  1. This is a poem I had to write for my modern dance composition class. It was about a time we were filled with fear, or a time we were filled with faith. Mine is definitely the fear side. Kirsten might remember the event this is based around.
    Ignore the random . . . . that was the only way I could get blogger to do the spacing I wanted. I would like to know what you think of it though.
