Jazzlee Clark Poem
I expected a lot from you
Because I saw potential
I saw the angel
Where they saw the devil
I saw the sun's rays
Where they saw dark ways
Now I must pay
For my ignorant say
In the world today
Things just change
You’ll see my name
Or feel my pain
I saw the best in you
Where others saw the worst
I treated you better than the rest
Whereas others put pain in your chest
You made mistakes and broke my heart
When others warned me and told me of your past
You left me destroyed after I fixed you
Angel or demon, which one do you choose?
I did you wrong in many ways
But you did me wrong almost everyday
Thought that one day you could be mine
Now people know I’m not fine
Find myself thinking of you
Like there is nothing to do
You took my love as something to chew
Then you wonder why we are through

Jazzlee Clark Poem
It all happened in a flash
That left echos like a bomb
Disrupted our process
Where did it come from?
I'm the one to blame
Now things are not the same
I'm taking pictures out of broken frames
Feeling endless amounts of shame
I played a messy game
Now it looks like I might lose
You even know her name
But, you are who I choose

Jazzlee Clark Poem
You were the calm before the storm
or maybe I was stuck in the eye
everything looked so beautiful,
did I really have to try?
You flew in like a hurricane
while I was going through winter days
like a tsunami, emotions hit me in waves
and then you left nothing but destruction and pain
Now all I do is avoid mirrors,
because seeing me isn’t healthy
the look in my eyes, says I dread being alive
but, I see success in my future, so I must strive

Jazzlee Clark Poem
It always starts like this
With some warmth and mist
Longing stares and cute smiles
Phone calls and new files
Sparks really flew
Who would’ve knew
Except for me and you
Exactly what we do
I feel sorry for how I feel
Because I always knew the deal
I thought it would’ve been different
Even though I noticed the descent

Jazzlee Clark Poem
I haven't slept in a while
ever since I last saw her smile
even though it was a dream
I still feel like I want to scream
Standing with her by that stream
She held my beating heart in her hand
Her eyes glowing red like a laser beam
I was just watching her stand
Our conversation became dark
I really thought I was dead
She really left her mark
Nothing more needs to be said

Jazzlee Clark Poem
Been outside for too long
I still wonder, whats wrong?
Can't feel the cold
Keep my chest puffed and bold
Where were you when it happened?
The whole ceiling collapsed
It felt like the sky was falling
The fact that I had faith is appalling
Around you, I felt at home
now its as if i am on the roam
Praying I don't fall and drool foam
feeling as stiff as a gnome

Jazzlee Clark Poem
There was a deep hole in my spirit
and I did not know how to fill it
Until I sat in your presence
I had not even known of its existence
Since that day I saw a ray
of sunshine in my spirit
I sought you out
as if you were water in a drought
and I was a farmer in his field
I had not noticed that I felt so alone
and stuck deep down low in my spirit
I sought your light to give my soul life
And then a strange thing happened
I felt a warmth that consumed my cold spirit
I then felt a love deeper than the space above
My Love, you then became my spirit
a living embodiment of that essence for me
A love so strong and powerful
allows for new boundaries to be set
and souls united behind the fire
of a love so ever glorious
This love takes me higher
Feels like it will mature and not expire
It feels like heaven on earth when she is in angel attire
a love even hotter than any type of flame or fire
And that is a love that will never die
a love so beautiful it causes you to cry
a love so pure that you can see in each eye
a love that will not fall even if you push and try
That love will never die

Jazzlee Clark Poem
Why am I always blamed?
It makes me feel ashamed
And I don’t think I’ll be saved
How far could I have strayed?
My problems are growing
My tears keep flowing
Where am I going?
Without knowing
I tell them my pain
Every so often
They start to complain
While my tears fall like rain
I guess I should stay sad
Because it keeps them glad
But am I truly that bad?
Even though failure was all I had

Jazzlee Clark Poem
It's been one of those weeks
I feel rather down and meek
I miss seeing your smile and red cheeks
honestly, I'm so sad, I feel like a freak
I haven't been motivated
my feelings aren't liberated
My wins aren't celebrated
My mind has deviated
I wonder why it makes me cry
Hoping that the truth is a lie
I was not the right kind of guy
and, maybe that is the real reason why

Jazzlee Clark Poem
He woke up and it was twilight
The sky was no longer bright
He wondered and pondered many things
While the crickets began to sing
He did not remember the day
And did not look forward to the night
He wished for time to delay
Although he knew it was not right
He barely noticed the time pass
As he peered into an empty glass
Realizing he did not want a drink
He felt his eyelids sink
When his eyes opened again
He heard birds sing
It was a beautiful dawn
And a bright day was born
