This Morning Poem by Kyle Schlicher

This Morning



this morning
i sat and stared off into space

after a few minutes,
i pulled my boots off
and then just sat there.

i sat there saying nothing.

i just sat there staring off into space
saying nothing

until

i lowered my head unto my arms
and i sat there

rocking back and forth

with my eyes closed
saying nothing

to

no one.
