tHe LoNeLy NoOn

 

it can be endless
as the only sound
i hear is the ticking
of the wall clock

it doesn’t stop
it doesn’t stop
i’m all this flop
floating unaware
on the lonely noon

maybe i am
the only one who
can understand

    There are times when I wish the clock would understand the thing about ‘silence being golden’.

    So clear and clean. I like that it’s noon, not a time normally associated with loneliness, since that’s the center of busyness in most people’s lives. Just curious about the significance of the upper and lower case title…
