Goby Poems | Examples


Premium MemberGulp

I’m just a little goby and I swim above the sand
I’m glad to live beneath the waves and not upon the land
I hear there’s cats and birds up there that love to dine on fish
So as a little goby I’m right here where I would wish

My fins kick up a little sand as I go on my way
I’m looking for a tasty meal which I do every day 
Perhaps I’m quite a hypocrite as I seek out a morsel
For like a cat, a shrimp would send a shiver down my dorsal

And there it is, my lunch today is flitting to and fro
It’s almost mesmerising so I guess I’ll have a go
I swim up very stealthily and open my mouth wide
The sand erupts… and it’s an anglerfish I’m stuck inside!

And so I sit here hoping that another fish might follow
And I can swim out as he finds a bigger fish to swallow 
I cannot bare to think I might be chewed up to a pulp
And I can only hope the last sound I hear isn’t, “Gulp!”

Do You

I wait to her your voice for two seconds
Weeks goby and I don't hear from you
I cant tell you why I worry so much 
I just want to hold you and kiss you
The ultimate goal is for you  to know to feel wanted by me
And you that you will only have that feeling with me truly
I love you more and more every day every second
My heart longs for you
I will show you im different
I am good 
I will be there for the good the not so great and the awesome
Im your girl today tomorrow and always
Do you feel the same way? 
Even if you don't I will still love you because your great
I want that connection that everyone wants I want that security 
That bond that no one or nothing can break even if its tipped off the edge of a cliff slowly falling
It will still not break
I will never quit on you
Please give me hope because you give me everything that my heart feels at every second
I need you I need to hold you and cry out my fears
Is there something here for you? 
I cant feel you so go ahead and tell me what you need?
I love you with everything I have to offer
