Poesía original

Interference I am talking to you again As if you still receive things - So much has happened, I don’t know where to put it. I almost tell you. In trains, in crowds, in empty rooms, In my walks on the beach, In my bed before sleep, In the washroom when I’m On the floor Curled up With glass in my hand, Missing you, Your name gets there first. It arrives before I decide it shouldn’t, Like it still has somewhere to go. Because suddenly it’s all happening at once, And I am back there, And then not, And then everywhere you aren’t - And still, I don’t tell you. Not because I don’t want to. Because I can’t send Anything Anywhere Anymore. It’s strange. You would have understood this. The worst part is You would have understood all of it. And I am only like this because you are not here to understand me anymore.

Interference I'm talking to you again As if you can still get messages - So much has happened, I don’t know where to put it all. I almost tell you. On trains, in crowds, in empty rooms, During my walks on the beach, In my bed before I sleep, In the bathroom when I’m On the floor Curled up With a glass in my hand, Missing you, Your name comes to mind first. It comes before I decide it shouldn’t, As if it still has a place to go. Because suddenly everything is happening at once, And I am back there, And then not, And then everywhere you aren’t - And still, I don’t tell you. Not because I don’t want to. Because I can’t send Anything Anywhere Anymore. It’s strange. You would have understood this. The worst part is You would have understood all of it. And I am only like this because you are not here to understand me anymore.

Explicación

The poem 'Interference' reflects a deep sense of longing and the emotional turmoil of trying to communicate with someone who is no longer present. The speaker addresses a person who seems to have passed away or is otherwise unreachable, expressing a desire to share experiences and emotions with them. The poem captures moments of solitude and introspection, where the speaker finds themselves almost speaking to this absent person in various settings, such as on trains, in crowds, or in the quiet of their own home. Despite the urge to communicate, the speaker acknowledges the futility of sending messages to someone who can no longer receive them. The poem conveys a poignant sense of loss and the difficulty of moving forward when the person who understood them best is no longer there. The title 'Interference' suggests the disruption caused by this absence, as well as the persistent, intrusive thoughts of the person who is missed. The poem uses free verse to mirror the natural flow of thoughts and emotions, emphasizing the raw and unstructured nature of grief.
