Drab - Hello Poetry

Drab Sep 11

It starts with just a sniffle.
A cough or two at worse.
But then it starts to spread.
Waiting for the hearse.

Oh wait, it’s here.
The mating call is near.
It wants me to resist.
I like that….

Poetry scam

I could never write
Anything remotely
As flawless as you do
So I'll fake it until
Someday I can find
Beauty in words too

It's hard not to feel like a fraud among such amazing writers here at hepo.

Miserable consistency

And now,
the only constant in my life
is my depression

i'm sorry that most of my writing is about my mental health and depression. This feels like the only place I can let some of it go so that it doesn't **** me

Carved

I carved her name upon the dawn
So every morning might be with her
But as it rose It grew too bright
And closed my eyes
Yet still I saw her there

I carved her name upon the sky
To keep her near me every day
But nightfall came and cleared the light
And all was dark
Yet still I saw her there

I carved her name upon the moon
To stare at her throughout my nights
But tired eyes are sneaky foes
And sleep prevailed
Yet still I saw her there

I carved her name upon my soul
Love not just with me when I look
But every day and every night
And in my heart
Yet still I saw her there

The Existential Angst Of A Dented Ping Pong Ball

if the reason
for existence
is no longer
a thing
then what?

Milestone

Approaching 200
In less than a day.
The poems they just fly.
Off the paper, as they say.

It’s a WORLDwind that never stops spinning.
It wonders even me.
I never stop kidding.
For the world is spinning around thee

NOTE – Gotcha!……no…..got me…...
