To The One I Was Dumb Enough To Get Away

My heart is in your hand and oh
how you grip it so tightly
Give me one more chance
I know it’s not baseball
But I wish you were not a one strike game
I know that I’m to blame
It’s really such a shame
I’m not playing any game
You the one I hope to gain
How you’ve brought me so much pain
Please
let me try again
There’s plenty of fish in the sea
But none like you
You were the one to find my bait enticing
Another one is not.. so.. likely…

Been a while, huh? oh well, I’ve experienced more things— some good, others… well, you know— but I’m back for some more poetry. Sure my old stuff is weird and I’m not the same as 14 year old me, but it nice to see how I changed. Anyway, I still come back to poetry as an escape. Maybe I’ll start posting again. If you read this far, thanks and bye for now.

Winter Car Ride

I sit in warmth,
And watch,
Through the foggy window
At the white, powdery night,
An occasional orange light
Streaks by, not far above,
And I sit, listening,
To the soft humming of an engine.

Traveler

MAKE YOURSELF

Whether a comma, or colon:
Punctuation slows my rolling
I need no period. When I end
no Capitalization when I begin
Rulelessly I flow my art
Not a single!
Exclamation mark
Are you not the one
Who'll know?
Where a question mark
No longer goes

Warp the structure
Bend the lines
Put in repeat
Let emotion unwind
Make yourself
Your poetry's the best
Be your own ruler
Pass your own test

Take your own road
Where ever it leads
Lover or hater
It's all poetry!

Hay
No matter who you are
You have my deepest respect!

Vanity
All is vanity
The meanings of passion
The aesthetic expression
The lines we draw and stay within
Even love is beyond intent
Vanity transcends
Flowing from our pens
And so we breathe again
