Run Out Poems

The Trolley May Run Out of Gas

Or translates to "I almost ran out of gas on the trolley today!"
An ode to my day!
On Trolley! New billows sweep thee out
Upward. What wilt thou? Hold that hill, be stout
Gas'st not thy mast
Now rent by stiff South Hill's blast? 
Thy side, of passengers now forlorn?
Thine tank, with groaning gauges say
"Though cannot sustain, 
The three

Premium MemberIf We Run Out of Gas

If we run out of gas, can we fill up somewhere
A station for such and to drop off our old foul air
Might have trouble hiring
Coz of the hazy o-ring
Something to consider as we age, c'est la guerre!

Premium MemberBefore You Run Out of Time

Many resigned people accept humdrum and boring as their usual
Sadly, it is not supposed to be this way, this was not the plan
However, society allows them to stew in their own gravies, with chunks of who cares.
Which is why musicals will always do well, especially the ones with the bright-eyed optimists.

Rose colored glasses make for

I Have Run Out of Paint

I have run out of paint
So where is the patron saint
The one that hails from B&Q
So no more need for me to queue

I have run out out paint
And there is no queue
So can I please use the loo

I have run out of paint just for now
But believe me I don't know how

As I was just

If All Grapes Were Seedless Would We Run Out

I am giving tomorrow up
in this day of end
wrap me in your world
Where inside
raindrops,
falling heroes
target skin
and with pin pricks
of cold
announce their arrival
Ambush beating eyelashes
and carry their assault
past cheek and chin
Shivers spine the chill
Greyed out clouds
Stretched  out  tendrils as  if          t  o
Catch its

Time Will Run Out

Time will run out 
You may never have another chance again 
Just get at it 
Make great usage of the opportunity at hand 
This is your moment 
You can be great 
But, you have to get started somewhere 
Begin now before it is too late

Premium MemberRun Out of Things You Want

I want to write a poem about getting what you want
Do you believe you will get what you want
- what you really want?
God will help you get what you want
He would just grant it to you one day
Out of the blue
You would be so surprised
elated, and don't know what to do
Because you had waited so

The Statute of Limitations Has Run Out

By Elton Camp

Most have things in their past
That present life could blast

Whose life’s an open book 
So to welcome a close look?

We hope none will ever learn
Things our name could burn

What we did way back when
And wouldn’t ever do again

Such acts and thoughts as those
That we think nobody knows

Some claim such they didn’t do,
They lie

THE SENSELESS NATURE OF SANITY

Can sanity make sense of sorrow,
now that I am not part of her tomorrow?
Can someone save me from today,
now that she has faded away?

The loss of a lady equals memories
The flavor of a springtime breeze
The walks which we once shared
Before her heartlessness was bared

I’ve been left to languish alone
Broken in both

The Giro's Run Out Again

Sixty measly quid
To last me a whole week
A victim of Broken Britain
My misery’s at its peak 

Stripped of my dignity
Powers on the wane
Surviving on frozen fish fingers
The giro’s run out again

Three quid on that lousy nag
No sweeties for the wean
My 4-1 shot pipped at the post
The giro’s run out again

Resistance is futile
Who listens when we

Run Out

Run out of words to say to each other
Run out of  time, that can't be rewind
Run out of  reasons to keep trying
We both knowit the right thing to do 
Dont come up to me

dont ant to see your beautiful smile
dont want want to hear your voice
