Michael Domaracki Poet Lyric

One By One

One by One…

Concrete words cement my fears, one by one commit to line
Carved in stone all through the years
A labor of love and time
A lesson to learn that nothing good will come
To those who cannot wait 
A patient man whose concrete words
Serve to document his fate
And one by one they’re commit to line
One by one with love, through time…

I can’t help but keep coming back to that which brought me here
A mere mortal man who finally learned how to keep his conscience clear
A lesson learned that nothing good will come to those who cannot wait
A blessed man is he whose love can survive in all this hate
And through darkened days still hold the line…
Balanced on the straight and narrow

Concrete words cement my fears, one by one commit to line
Carved in stone all through the years
So some good would come in time…
One by one, a labor of love and time
One word, one day, each in its own time…

Concrete words cement my fears, one by one commit to line
Realizing just how clear it is, this is only part of the design…
Better times will soon arrive…believe

Kshitiz Kumar May 14, 2013 at 9:15 AM and i also want to say that you can keep one line gap in rhyming scheme. Michael Domaracki May 14, 2013 at 9:55 AM Thank you for the input, it is appreciated. That said, I hardly ever write from my mind, always from my heart and to hear this lyric along side the music in my head, it all fit together quite well. Thanks again.

Kshitiz Kumar May 14, 2013 at 9:13 AM actually this poem is good but some words do not have a rhyming scheme.the thing is that you have to only write it not with your mind and to write with your heart and new ideas will come in your mind.okay.
