A Different Me 0000

A Different Me

O' Poetry, poetry set me free
For I owe you a different me
I owe you my mind my heart my very soul
And you owe me the kindness that you stole
You owe me my loneliness my sleepless nights
And you owe me my peace of mind
Most of the time in turmoil, my mind and me
In my sleepless nights, I need peace the silence
My sleepless nights for your not there
But sitting beneath the bridge or wondering somewhere
The night streets are calling to you as you go roaming through
I hear you sneaking in the early morn,
At the clock, I glance surreptitiously
As you came home drunkenly reciting your words excitedly
Reciting your phrases verses of poetry...
Whilst I've been waiting for you, longing for the touch
But your perpetual drunkeness moodiness sullenly!
I like you not this way...
By the riverside I cried, I cried with loneliness
Within me the sorrow crucifying me.
The boat arriving at the bay I asked, he has he seen you
Don't you know all night you, were away
When I asked you had no answer, for me
but said ces't la vie...
But quoting instead a verse of poetry...
In the darkness of my nights, I walk searching you...
But with a new dawn approaching
A better feeling there won't be as the rising of the sun
Over that mountain high above the hill the waterfall
Scintillating little diamonds a wondrous, sight before my eyes
Autumnal colours, trees are laden with dew
The frosted grasses in the morning sun glistening, in dew
As I kissed you, tears dancing behind my eyes
Recollecting memories of past times that kiss!
You were so cold when I kissed you
Wet with the morning dew
That tinge of blue your lips, hands like ice
I ran my hands over you, just to warm you
But your drunkenness in perpetual motion, your words
Such as Poetry!
O' Poetry I owe you my world my reason for living
My dying my freedom my life
My tears falling silently my secrets in the depths of my mind
The stranger I feel is residing within me
Am feeling so lonely can you not see!
O' Poetry I owe you the feeling of I know not what!
Of being born!
And my love of finding him, to lose yet again
O' Poetry!!
Poetry I owe you a different me!!
