No Faith in Books
I have no faith in books
because they never satisfy
The words aren't real
the characters don't feel
mary-sues fill the pages
tragedy strikes all at once
every thing is black and white
Time
time is our enemy
time is our friend
there is too much time
there is not enough time
there is a little time
there is a lot of time
there is time for this
there is no time for that
Iron Pen
The pen firmly touches the paper
The waves of inspiration come in
The sunlight bleaches the notebook
The final story begins
The typewriter clicks with each letter
The words flow even better
Deception
Your appearance is deceiving
I never know what your thinking
One day you're curious
One day you're sad
One day you're superfluous
One day you're mad
Sun shines
the sun shines down
the kids run round
but you feel so alone
the time has come
for you to become
all that you are
i hope that you decide to stay
and make this a wondrous day
at the window
the rain pats down on a thin tin roof
the girl stares at you from a spot on the roof
wonders if you'll love her some day
wonders if you'll see her
not for who she is everyday
Creativity
Creativity is impossible
when you need it
it fails you
when you do not
it flows from within
so as i sit staring out
my window pane
i'm thinking of what
will happen in time
The Graceful Place
i used to live in a place
serene and peaceful in its grace
i loved the place with all my heart
until progress tore it apart
this place was once peaceful
now it's just disgraceful
This Feeling
I have this strange feeling inside
It's a feeling I can no longer hide
It wells up inside me when you smile at me
That smile that I love to see
New Found Glory
In all your new found glory
You've forgotten what you've left behind
You have forgotten your life's story
The things that made you mine
i am undefined
our friendship is undefined
it is anything but silver-lined
we have uncomfortable silences
and times we cannot stop talking
so why an unsure
you are undefined
all i know is your name
Provocative Thinking
Provocative thinking is what got me here
just sitting and waiting for the moment to clear
i thought we could be friends again
but that i know won't come again
at least not anytime soon
Undefined
Can you define a single thing?
A story or a bird's wing?
Define is a strange word
I prefer the antonym rarely heard
Once Upon A Time
you once were my best friend
but sadly that friendship has come to an end
you no longer are here
it seems you have just disappeared
words are hard to find
i'm trying to write a poem
but the words are hard to find
i look at my typewriter
i see the keys aligned
each time i push a letter
with a click one is on my page
