POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
i have written and posted for some years now, trying to become better. i was on here last as wolfatthedoor.
the blue of his shirt
the blue
of his
shirt
matched
the color
of the
ocean's
hands,
watching
the wind
fill
his sails,
he floated
on the
waters
like
an empty
shell,
he was
pushed
further out
before
he was
swallowed
up.

misconception
when i
was
younger,
i asked
for my
intellect
to grow,
now
that i
am older
and wiser,
i see
now
that i
asked for
the wrong
thing
to be
bigger.

my secret
if i loved her more
i would have to let her know
but it's my secret
no more heartbreaks
you're only lonely
that's the way you choose to live
with no more heartbreaks
she wore moonlight
she looked so lovely
wearing nothing but moonlight
she wore it all night
winter's cold
i don't mind the cold
when winter comes around
let it pass by spring
hopeful flowers
the bad weather came
the flowers withstood it all
keeping...

pale gold daisies
pale gold
daisies
lay on
the
counter,
my hand
stroking
their stems,
slowly
breathing
i keep
dozing off,
and they
are on
my mind,
i lay
down
beside
you, what
would it
have meant
if i
would
have left
them in
the garden.

her eyes
her eyes
her dark eyes watched me
with a disapproving smile,
i felt so wrong.

vanished
i cannot
hold
any blame
for you
rose that
did not
survive
winter,
your body
has
vanished
but
the soul
of you
is still
around,
you
will not
be
defeated
too easily,
i will
see you
come back
again intact.

i can't change things
what
did i
take
from her,
too much,
too little,
at this
moment
it may
be
impossible
to tell,
i cannot
go back
and change
things,
the only
thing i
can do
is try
to move
forward,
and try
to
understand
her side.

on her way (back home)
almost
morning,
she easily
walks
along the
stoned
sidewalk,
almost
gliding
as her
high heels
on shapely
legs
tap out
her nearing
arrival,
her shadow
quiet
as a
whisper
matches her
movements,
on her
way
back home.

she writes easily
i have
seen the
quality
of her
in other
books,
where she
lets the
rhymes
flow,
as she
slips
herself
onto pages,
allowing
the reader
to escape
into
her words,
we can
become
involved
within her
projects
between
those
covers.

i try
i try
to find
myself
whispering
up to
her, a
shadow
that
hangs
around,
a late
night
thought
that won't
go away.

fog
i could
see the
eerie eyes
of the
streetlamps
trying
to stare
through
the fog,
and i
anticipated
hardly any
movement
on the
rain slick
streets,
only
occasionally
watching
wheels
from passing
vehicles
dine on
asphalt,
this was
another
form
of my
escaping,
cold
and wet
i relented
and went
back home.

during my lifetime
i watch
the leaves
float
on the water
then slowly
drift away,
each one
a hope,
a dream
i had
wished for
during my
lifetime.
