Juxtaposition

So in the English and writing arena, you hear the word Juxtaposition thrown around a lot. It's a nice word that makes you sound smart, so it gets used often. I thought I would write my own little juxtaposition poem, mostly because I was tired of listening to people toss the word around trying to sound intelligent. Plus it was cool...


Juxtaposition:

Quiet talk of screaming passion
I cannot see
Fits of jealous calm pushing
But I
I cannot feel

In me a storm softly rages
I cannot hear
Moments of insane sanity
Well I
I cannot know

You are rock solid and malleable
I cannot move
A deep burning on the surface
And I
I cannot heal

A stillness moving swiftly
I cannot touch
Humans and alien emotions
But I
I cannot feel
