I don’t claim to be poetic at all but I was messing with some rhymes tonight and thought you all might enjoy reading what I wrote. Sorry if it’s not according to poetic rules but please enjoy it despite.
1.Colors on the canvas appear
Swirling together in a rainbow so clear
If the colors weren’t so bright
My heart would have to be a light
In my life of colors appear
My feelings now become so clear
In her eye I see the tear
The heart, the souls together as one
If only she could see the sun
Her life, her breath
Gone today, it is her death
My colors and hers, once combined
Now there’s nothing left behind.
2. The rhythm, the beats, this life completes
Her heart, my source of joy, competes
But as she’s gone my canvas fades
Inside of me the feelings betrayed
My loss, my gain, I’ve gone insane
So here I stand before this train
My soul drifts on to further heights
My heart ne’er to shine a light
I’ll send the rain to dampen your pain
Hold fast and strong and lift the weight
I bid my last and final strain
3. I paint my final canvas now
Dark so dark there is no light
To some I stand and others bow
I walk along this path alone
My heroes gone, he’s out of sight
I’ve lost my hope, I’ve gone too far
The path, so drear, has taken my soul
In its place a gashing scar
Take my place, to you I extol
Be strong my son, be strong my friend
Don’t ever go around that bend
If you should, never lose sight
Of what is wrong and what is right
As I said, I’m not a poet but a friend liked these and said I should post them so here they are. If you have any thoughts, want more posts like this or think they are just plain horrible I’m interested to hear. Until tomorrow, as always
