. Poetry from The Great In-Between: Do you think this is true?

Do you think this is true?

 


Blessed be. 

Velumbound. 


Do you think this is true? 


This poignant four-line transmission uses natural imagery to explore themes of emotional distance, alienation, and the passage of time in human relationships.


For even though people exist in close proximity, they can remain deeply isolated from one another.


(A lone voice whispers) 


Like relics from bygone years

As far as the eyes can see 


We pass each other 

Like small icebergs in an endless sea
