Whisper to me

Whisper to me pretentiously
about my awakenings,

for I know not who I am anymore...


and all my insights shall one day be revisable.

Hold me close within you formidably,

for I know not how long life shall be...
and these preconceptions of my soul can sometimes be bitter...

Beckon unto me...

without the power of idealistic compilations,

for I know not how to reply.
To An Angel In Heaven.

So..
Whisper to me.

The Poem

I beg to disagree with a former comment. I don't think it was sentimental. At least, if it was, the sentiments were not slushy. I thought it was very powerful and I could empathise with the narrator. It reminded me of 'Angel' by Sarah McClauchen (?). 'Beckon unto me' interfered with my enjoyment of the rest of the poem becuase it sounded somehow like a repitition of a hundred poems. The part about 'insights' being 'revisable' was strikingly wise, and gave me a respect for the poem.
