Long Lost track of time Poems

It will be wintertime very soon
Here comes the evening moon
Gradually, we'll be shining like the sun
Eventually, you and I will be made as one

Tick Tock Tick Tock

Tock tick tock tick
The time...

Oh how sweet was the sight that came to my eyes
My feet, my lungs, my whole body felt so sore
My house, my room, my couch, why it all seemed to...

I've never had a dream come true,
I've lost track of time,
Till the day I find peace,

He's in self-isolation keeping company
a rooftop crow reminding him
a wiser authority is still at work!
No sense of distance within four walls
sickroom alien, where dawn comes early
and long night falls.

The madman chalked red X’s
on the sidewalks of the houses 
if he suspected 
or had evidence
that people there

Our marble eyes will fill up with salty tears
and the rivers will swell until they drown
the glittering meadows in madness.

Sit beside your bed 
And wallow there please 
The world doesn't want to see you today

Just as if windblown leafs,...

I bet you won't call
You know its true
You're addicted to your buddies
I'm addicted to you

I stay up waiting for your call
Insomnia; sleepless
You will never realize
You are my biggest weakness

You said you would call two hours...

I looked out the window as the night fell. 
The shadows of buildings reflected on the ground, 
Reminded me of the place I lived— a true, concrete forest.

Bids a wave to time as it passes by fast

for wafting spice  from heated wine .

In today's world where a locked door is never far away,
And nothing ever seems to be quite secure enough,
We need to be prepared for when we are locked out, locked in
Or locked up.

Locked out because...

I cry myself to sleep at night
Unfortunately, not everything is black and white
Oh, how my soul aches from the cold
Oh, your wings of flight are so bold

I wake up for the millionth time...
Wrapped up in...

where he...
