What The Noise Carries

A short poem

By Drea ShakurPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

My thoughts

My guilt

The regret

My hope

My longingness for love

To be loved

To have true love

To hold it in my heart

To know what it was like to lose it

If I lost it,

It meant I had it

Appreciated it much too late

Knew that I was blessed enough to carry it with me at one point in my life

To have that light

That emotes oh, so bright

And when the noise of

My thoughts

My guilt

My regret

My hope

Get muffled

I’ll know

I’m gone…
