Poetry: Isolation

by Cordelia Riordan

Created on: October 30, 2008

Knowing, Seeing

Somewhere, a clock is chiming,

And somewhere, there's somebody dying.

Don't you know? Don't you know?

Yesterday, someone asked

Why the world is masked.

Don't they know? Don't they know?

A star is falling from space,

Soaring through the sky - unseen, without a trace.

Don't you see? Can't you see?

Somewhere, the earth quakes

And a new being a god creates.

But no one knows, and no one sees.

Just the way it was meant to be.
