There have been two times in the last couple of years where something inspired me to write a poem. I posted one of those on Facebook, but I thought I'd post both of them here:
"come dance with me!"
said the rainbow girl to the gray cloud boy.
"i cannot." said the gray could boy.
as must a cloud boy say.
"come run and play with me!"
said the rainbow girl to the gray cloud boy.
"i cannot." said the gray cloud boy.
as must a cloud boy say.
"come sit with me!"
said the rainbow girl to the gray cloud boy.
"i cannot." said the gray cloud boy.
as must a cloud boy say.
"then say goodbye to me."
said the rainbow girl to the gray cloud boy.
"i cannot." said the gray cloud boy.
as he watched the rainbow fade away.....
The next poem I wrote this week. I had heard my ex was up to his old tricks, and so I was inspired to write. Only after I wrote this did I find out that yes, there was a new girl but she was fully aware of everything and didn't care. Idiots of the world, UNITE! But whatever.
news I half expected,
news I half foresaw,
though my heart's protected,
anger is my fatal flaw.
news ignored by some,
news I wish were different,
cause out of this only pain will come,
not for me, but someone new,
reminding me that my part's through.
