Thoughts Of A Man
Yesterday
I walked to
The familiar
Open space
At the beginning
Of the trail
The birds flying
Around me
I thought to myself
What it would be like
To meet the Yeti here
To enjoy the berries
He enjoys
And to talk with him
He knows what it
Is like to live life alone
And so do I
There is peace there
In nature
Amongst the trees
And everyone always asks
How everyone is
But no one knows
How anyone else is
We just keep saying,
"How are you?"A
And that's good
It's good to be polite
I just say "good"
Or "pretty well"
But one could never know
How I am
I'll tell you how I am
And what I feel
At the dentist
There is the most beautiful
And caring receptionist
Melissa is her name
And I wish I could spend
Thanksgiving with her
To spend time with her
And just have a good time
And give her a hug
She has the most loving smile
I think I have ever seen
So much so that I am
Taken aback
Even when I look at her
Well I had a friendly conversation
With her
And that will have
To suffice
The beautiful women
Come and go
There is no female friend
That's fine
What we desire
We often do not get
And that is okay
I'll just go
On a hike
Into the mountains
I don't care
About meeting
Any female friends
I won't be here
For Thanksgiving
Walking through an
Empty world
Full of emptiness
Thinking one day
That someone
Might return
The love
That I have
Given to just
About everyone
I have ever met in life
And so I go to the gym
And then to the mountains
It's just another day
Remember
Everything can change
In an instant
Life will become hard
Very hard in America
I hope someone
Out there
Thinks this is
A good poem
Or good thoughts
Not really a poem I guess
