Poem Title:
Poem
As my heart beats simultaneously to the ticking of the eternal clock, I sit and ponder on what life has for me to come. As life goes on around me, as my friends go on with lives meant to be lived, and as my brothers find lovely girls to bring home to Mom; I sit and ponder, when? When is it going to be my time to show love?! When am I going to be able to open up emotionally to my special one, and where am I going to find her? Envy takes a toll on my soul, as my heart wants to love and be loved, I tear it down with self-pity and hate. Jealousy's green flows through my veins, when I see my friend hugging and kissing his girl, and when my brother talks of his future wife, I am excited as ever could be, but something deep in my chambered heart wants to break out with force and scream! ...Jealousy halts the clock and pushes it back, Patience pushes the clock forward, making time come faster, and that moment when you least expect it, the love of your life comes out of nowhere and holds you and kisses you and makes you laugh and smile. Patience, such a word with such a powerful meaning to life. Patience is key, with no patience in this world, we'd all kill ourselves and we'd all lose our minds, falling in love with hearts that never stood a chance with you. If you want love, and be loved, open your heart, don't give away your heart, but give enough to people, so they see you in a different light, and open new ideas of your character. You never know who is around the corner, so enjoy life, and be patient, and time will come soon enough and you'll smile and thank the heavens, but for now, just relax and enjoy life. .2.1.2014.
