I waited
For your call
Like autumn waits for your rain
When it rung, there was poor reception
How profane
John Dewberry Jun 2020
Sophisticated
Lumineer
Ultimate Truth Seeker

Strong and independent
Yet humble and reserved
Attraction by way of mystery

Start
light
Ubiquitous
Transmitter
The strength to go on despite everything

Stoic
Lovely
ultimate true

Free-spirited and loose

I love you
As you are
As yourself
John Dewberry Mar 2020
Whoever craves modesty
Indefinitely
Shall be completely lost
When the quarantine ends

The stir-crazy
Lonely
And the otherwise social
Will be compensated
For this purgatory
We had no hand in causing

We now just bide our time
And wait for the quarantine to end
And the cages to rust
John Dewberry Mar 2020
Summers here
heat is up
Disease Is fought
We’ve been caged
Long enough

A cry of lust
Is a cry for youth
Never before has spring been viewed
With such seasonal Indifference

What shouldn’t be is
What is right now
A present state
Of discontent
A feeling typically reserved
For winter is met by the glorious summer
And a passionate high
Let loose our lust
Where the cages this viruses creates doth rust
John Dewberry Mar 2020
Parallelograms
Go unparalleled
Until  trapped
by trapezoids
That
are than fused and molded
To fit inside
Rhombuses

For the squares who
Lack imagination
You’ve likely raised a brow at this notion
And for the cynics ever questioning
I say congratulations
You’ve done a stellar job... at proving nothing
Life is about the possibility of what could be
Based on what is
Improbability lives only in the minds
Of those who’d prefer to Uber to a dream
Just to avoid a toll
And if rules must be broken
So that tradition may redefine itself
Then who’s to stop it
John Dewberry Mar 2020
Laced with syntax
Rhyming gets me high
Like ecstasy
Tripping on the the x
Factor, factoring equations
Analyzing every outcome
Call me dumb
Not under the gun
Having fun

Dial 9-1...
Im the one
living life
Without strife
You found God
I found the bar
I will steal your girl
And buy you a bourbon
Hast you learnt
She hit on me
Put a ring on it next time
I’m not responsible for your heartbreak
When I didn’t know
I won’t call her *** though
That’s low
And bro
Your lowest ebb has come
Learn from this
John Dewberry Mar 2020
Ever want to detach
Just be yourself
For a change
Come to me
Emotionally available
Internally empty

******* to ****
Is ******* pointless
This is a truth
That I’ve believed for so long
But I’ll go till I hit
Rock bottom

You can’t feel fulfilled
Until you lose yourself
Immunity doesn’t exist
Until you need a prescription

Loneliness is not an  ultimatum
Always wine and dine
Before you lay
Cause when you lay
Without getting laid
And sleep together
It’s a date
That’s a date she’s to remember

Wake and prepare breakfast
Think fast
Cause you know
Your cooking isn’t up to par
Doesn’t matter
You’ll be at the bar
With a mamosa before long

You’re deinking to celebrate
The fact that you beat
The notion and stereotype
That you **** for its sake
you don’t feel fake
Merely empty
Cause she left

But you’ll move on
You romanceced your way into bed
And didn’t succumb to your libido
A victory unto itself
