Poem
I woke up early in the morning for once in my life Instead of sleeping in oh so endlessly and feeling sluggishingly anguished I broke the habits of yesterday’s peace and strife Just as I have wished...just as I have prayed...no longer feeling languished I attempted to write a rap song… Just for the fun of it Just for the fun of it I attempted to write it before the dawn Before I welcome the sun Before I welcome the sun In my life...in my life… The birds in the sky soar and soar hopelessly South from on high Northern winds keep blowing and the breeze is making my mouth dry The strangers of the deep walk to and fro in the depths of the unknown The strangers look at me vacantly as I also walk on my own, but not alone I accepted reality for what it really is... Listen and take a seat Listen and take a seat I attempted to write my fantasies down Before the clouds formed Before the clouds formed And turned into rain...turned into rain… The sun is nowhere in sight and it’s a rainfall of delight It’s a darksome day with the wind blowing all day and night The stars and moon tonight refuse to shine for me and you I want to mend everyone’s scars and paint them upon this wall I resented the fact that you’re gone Just for the sake of your safety Just for the sake of your safety I attempted to write my prayer down With an upside down frown With an upside down frown In this town I call Lake Havasu City The sun is dimmed and the clouds surround the Earth It’s a gloomy afternoon in the desert of sprouting mirth The stars and moon at night refuse to shine for us all I recommend everyone to be brave and triumphantly stand tall I stayed at home all day in solitude once more… Wondering when the storm of loneliness would leave I strayed away from God’s path and now, I’m sore Wandering in the realms of oblivion - where I grieve
