POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm new to poetry, but here it goes.
Five Thousand Feet Below
Scars won't bleed again
So I guess I don't have to worry 'bout that
Pack up my heart and leave again
I know I won't ever look back
I'm headed out west towards the coast
I know the road a little to well
But scars won't bleed again
So I guess I don't have to worry 'bout that
I won't have to worry 'bout that
Now five thousand feet below you'll see
The sand and the sun and me
It set and it's dark already
But you've still got time to run
I don't want to have to worry 'bout you
So I guess I don't have to worry 'bout that
Pack up my heart and leave again
I know I won't ever look back
I'm headed out west towards the coast
I know the road a little to well
But scars won't bleed again
So I guess I don't have to worry 'bout that
I won't have to worry 'bout that
Now five thousand feet below you'll see
The sand and the sun and me
It set and it's dark already
But you've still got time to run
I don't want to have to worry 'bout you

Last Love Letter
Buttons undone
Have I impressed anyone
Pushed to the brink
'suppose I'll sit here and think
Laced, curled and taught
Unlike your coda you don't fade you rot
Paris lights are dreams
When we're all stuck here in thought
Can't wrap my mind around these things
That shed light on your apologies
'round here we sip from glass
and run our hands through the trees
Waist deep in fear
Sunrise is nowhere near
I'll stick it out through the cold
Meanwhile I wish you were here
I'd might have come off better
If I sent one...

Together Loose
as the bitter winter cold
shapes the steam on your breath
they yell last call for love
or not, I guess
but if memories are
what you're getting rid of
then hold my hand
and I'll bet you'll feel love
fighting fires in the wind
and you're sweet on me
and I'm sweating leaving you
'cause I don't believe
but if memories are
what you're getting rid of
then hold my hand
and I'll bet you'll feel love
shapes the steam on your breath
they yell last call for love
or not, I guess
but if memories are
what you're getting rid of
then hold my hand
and I'll bet you'll feel love
fighting fires in the wind
and you're sweet on me
and I'm sweating leaving you
'cause I don't believe
but if memories are
what you're getting rid of
then hold my hand
and I'll bet you'll feel love
