Long Lost Poets
I took a short hiatus
away from this worldly place.
Thinking that my writings
were a bit of a disgrace.
Who was I to think
that my words should be read.
For they are no where near as perfect
of long lost poets who are dead?
Why was I even writing them?
that reason may never be known.
At least I'll know I've tried
as many writings have now shown.
Words will be passed
along in good due time.
Maybe one day I will come to learn
that those words once were mine.
So now I must further journey
into these words that fill my head.
Hoping someday to be remembered
like the long lost poets who are dead.
