Wilfred Aniagyei Poet Free verse

Some Girl

You look at a girl
Your eyes search her eyes 
And see she isn't your girl
No matter how much you want her 
You grasp that finally
Though deception is sweet and easy
It implants a hopeful maybe
Yet awareness is key 
Piercing the chest like a driven spear
Take a dainty sip of beer in a cup 
Then take heart and time 
The world doesn't belong to you
Perhaps you belong to the world
T'is always a matter of time
You may yet still find her
Beyond these woods somewhere

Beata Agustin July 5, 2024 at 8:02 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Quoth Theraven June 5, 2020 at 10:36 PM Wilfred, 'Your eyes search her eyes And see she isn't your girl.' Wisely spoken truth, though not for every ear. The fools errand ticks on - If not she, then who? If not now then when? -Richard

Andrea Dietrich June 1, 2020 at 7:53 PM I really enjoyed this one, Wilifred. It reminds me of that song where a man sees the woman on a subway train or something and briefly imagines being with her.
