It has been a while since the last writing collaboration, but here’s a new one called Echoes, from Aspasía S. Bissas. If you’d like to get involved in a future collab, drop me an email contact@peterwynmosey.com.
Echoes – Aspasía S. Bissas
There are whispers that crash
like screams;
You used to understand that
before you disappeared
into someone else’s tattered dreams.
And there are screams that come out
as silence;
I had to learn that
when your absence started feeling like violence.
There’s too much of you left
to let me break free;
Woven, twisted,
tangled through my thoughts;
I’m echoes held together by memory.

Echoes- Peter Wyn Mosey
I heard all the words
that passed away
in the growing void
echo – please stay
I felt all the tears
that rolled to the sea
swell like waves
and wash over me
I saw sighs
enveloping and consuming
Swallowing me whole
distant and confusing
