neverlandandpeterpan - Hello Poetry

I was a young and hopeful soul Desired to wander free Free of my worries and longed to go on adventures At night I would watch the pink skies Sitting in a rocking chair on the porch Being aware of nature that surrounded me Assertive of the words I shared Taught the ways of my father Dreamed of golden bridges and greener days When people like you would come together and lay in the grass Holding hands and listening to music Going barefoot and swaying with the wind Let us go back to Woodstock I had a change of heart

Feeling the need to smoke a cigarette When you never had one before Fighting the urge to ***** Cause you got caught up on drinking more Packed up your belongings and headed to the west It's a cold autumn afternoon and the air hits your chest All that is left of you is in your head Your body is unstable and your eyes are sore and bleed Life decided to cut you loose and let you have the noose No one came to the rescue There you lay waiting for death to accept you Had you wished for roses and kisses the time you went away Strangers from afar would not pay any mind that day

Green under-ripe fruit Ripens slowly To that perfect sweetness Succulent mangoes Crimson strawberries Inky blueberries Swallow their soft flesh and let it nourish you Before it’s too late And their skin becomes dry and wrinkled Black spots appearing Bruised flesh that leaves a bitter taste Eat it now Before the fur settles on the fruit Do not take your youth For granted
