Hour 22: Lethe

took me to river Lethe, washed me in all his purity.
drowned every other god,
who would not come and swallow me as we would have wanted.
i bred myself out, sent you a clone of my aftermath.
sleepless nights echo when your silence taps on the window,
like rain, I could find you in a different wavelength,
you keep all the excess, I’ll breed myself again, with someone who loves me more.
disappeared and in the moonlight,
I cascaded down again, back into your oblivion.
took me to the river Lethe and drowned me.

  1. This poem has great imagery and I love the flow of the words. So many sentences stand out and just sound so amazing. The last two lines are hauntingly beautiful…
    I cascaded down again, back into your oblivion.
    took me to the river Lethe and drowned me.

    Fantastic!
