#176 Verboten - Miami Vice poem - Hopeless Heart

[mxcatmoon]

Title: Hopeless Heart
Fandom: Miami Vice (TV)
Author: Cat Moon
Rating: PG
Words: 65
POV: Sonny Crockett (Sonny/Rico)
Notes: About the ‘author’. With the few fandoms I’ve done poetry for in the past, I’ve used a special pseudonym for the specific character pov, just for fun. For Josef’s poems in Moonlight, I used JK Fitz, his initials and Fitz(gerald) the name he was using when he lived in NYC, just because it sounded cool. Sunshine Superman is Sonny’s, because I think it fits him both in terms of irony and his true nature.



Hopeless Heart

by Sunshine Superman


Feelings achingly verboten

Words remaining unspoken

Truth buried at the bottom of a bottomless pit

Cruising dark streets

That keep my secrets

Screaming inside

With a whimper, not a bang

Lies of omission haunt the narrative

Self-deceit rules the scene

Denying my soul’s other half

Tasting hopeless, yet unable to give up hope

Holding ‘someday’ close like a talisman

Knowing someday will never come
