Um... 12:32 start

It's late and I have class tomorrow morning but I felt like sharing some poems I wrote a while back... I read them again today and thought I might be cool to share them with others. They don't really have titles, and there's two of them, enjoy.

As I lay here waiting

Pained and aching

The weight of the words I refused to speak crushing me preventing me from awakening from this nightmare here I rest I rinse I repeat 

There is no greater feet than that of the man at the peak

He crossed the creek and what takes me a year took him a week

Yes I am weak yes a tad meek 

But I refuse to flea 

And though many plea

I will not preserve for them the glee

The mirth of failure, the joy of defeat 

Some find it simple the way the world works

So exploit it, retort what you believe makes it proper and hold your ground

For the value of a man is not determined by the sharpness of his blade but the reason he's sharpens it

For the brick laid for his fellow man bears the weight of his hopes his dreams the passionate fire that at that moment was lit.

I guess these late nights are good for something

Tossing back and forth imagining  the other half of my bed isn't as empty as it seems 

These days keep getting longer

And They say time heals all 

but who helps time when he gets down

Who saves Father Time from his chronic depression

His repeated repression

And the painful digestion of everything he stomaches

I want to dive In but am scared to swim

I want to eat my cake not alone but next to you

Yeah you, are like the dew in the morning, the brew at night or the stew that let's me know your true

The words on paper are larger than they appear and the feelings in my head now are clear

They spell a word I rarely see

A chain of lines that set a tone

Something that brings pause

Before the play the fast forward and the pause again

series of memories written as fast as I move my pen

Scribbles and shapes 

Like the light through the drapes

Trying as they might they battle they fight to breakthrough to you
