The Lonely Poet
he stood still alone
in a crouded room
no air just smoke
in a cloudy ploom
felt the heat of their eyes
better talk soon
the sweat beed creaped
from cheek to chin
dont think youll forget
now its time to begin
so the poet rhymed
his lonely line.....
the church bell toll
tweve in a row
he watched all the morners go
to plant a seed
to a tree will grow
hand in hand they gathered round
and prayed so loud
not making a sound
the strenth of harts and minds
over broken glass many times you walk
once dream lover dont shout just talk
on that misty night
so long now least you forgot
we were happy as can be
now this is all she sees
is it love or hate one beleaves
empty streets
dark damp and wet
their is nothing left
now just regret
the life you had
you now forget
its just a dream to you
your sky is never blue
and age has left you blind
