Poem | Untouchable; Out of Reach

Untouchable; Out of Reach, A Poem by Jennifer Gulbrandsen

Finally, I am untouchable;

Out of reach.

Unbreakable.

The answer is silence;

My own side by each.

Scream into the void, I am unattainable;

A barrier never breached.

Unstoppable.

The wall is made of brick;

No matter what you beseech.

Once it hurt, now unfathomable;

Deafness to the screech.

Unattainable.

Never heard again;

A lesson you didn’t teach.

I’ll take my leave, uncrushable;

No need for a speech.

Unforgivable.

The shadow accompanies you;

Like a dried leech.
