To be a child,
Carefree and to run wild.
Unaware the terror the world contains.
By time and experience youth is maimed.
Nay a blessing or a curse,
But a time of folly for better or worse.

The clock on the wall and I in my seat.
Ticking and ticking all of the week.
When will it end? When will it stop?
As I sit by the wall with a clock.
Her

Her
Her laughter, her kindness,
A beauty that is truely timeless.
Her brilliance, her eyes,
A heart break she only likes guys

Tossing and turning all night,
Evil dreams I do fight.
The battle finally won with might,
While the darkness turns to light.

Time marches on like a solider of death, racing forward robbing last breaths.
Never yielding, never starting to stop,
just marching along to the chime of a clock.

Silly and dramatic
Barely thematic
My poems are as deep as a puddle
With titles that only muddle

Basic and lackluster rhymes
That are as old as time
topics so elementary
My twists more predictable than a documentary

Despite all of this
I still want to wish
That one day I can truly be a poet
Even if the world will never know it

— The End —
