As days sneak away       Like small thieves    Taking pieces of my soul I wonder…                 Where poems        The guardians of time? Defenders of hopes?        Or…    Were they disordered seams            Holding together a life         Of secret sorrow             Disintegrating Where they artistic lies Shallow     Hollow           Perfected to taste mellow                To hide the bitterness                           The missing shadow              Of my shrinking soul?     What where they?                    Impostor dreams?

IMPOSTOR DREAMS
As days sneak away       Like small thieves    Taking pieces of my soul I wonder…                 Where poems        The guardians of time? Defenders of hopes?        Or…    Were they disordered seams            Holding together a life         Of secret sorrow             Disintegrating Where they artistic lies Shallow     Hollow           Perfected to taste mellow                To hide the bitterness                           The missing shadow              Of my shrinking soul?     What where they?                    Impostor dreams?
Why do we really write poetry? To feel better, or to not feel worse? To run away, or to achieve something?
