Poem Title:
Poem
Life coming at me like a huge tide Compassion in me is trying to hide One step from being a badman Always having to be the sad man Wanting to stay up all night But having to do what's right Torn between what the heart desires Those inner fires If I could only stop before comes the heartbreak but that's the chance you take Getting lost to any moment in time Like being lost in the words of this rhyme Hearts break people take Compassion No longer the fashion Can't buy love, only rent it for a short time You become a broken mime The payment for love is a broken heart But you knew that from the start Willing to try Once more fly The taste of love, so sweet Bitter the defeat Once more lost in the rhyme How long this time Not long enough I'm not that tough To many times broken Memories are just a token Silent echoes there to remind Getting stuck in rewind What was to be Not sure I wish to see Only so many times can you use glue After love flew What's one to do Pieces that fit ,are no more Fell through the cracks on the floor Forever means but a short time No happy ever after rhyme Not for me But my soul is free Older Bolder Not so in need of love No pure dove Surfing through the tide From life I no longer hide Not afraid to stand alone Despite what life has shown Maybe I've grown Learned the only person you need to be true to, Is you
