Alone

A lone flower growing in the field
the weeds surround and choke,
A child comes and see the flowers beauty
and takes it away from the pain it knew,

Like the flower I am alone
until you come and like the child save me from
the grasp of the tainted soil.

I live with you when you are near or far
Live with you, with you- with you,
you who saved me from my loneliness
and give me great joy just by being with you.

How then shall I return the love?
Nothing I do seems to be right and I fail
you
you love me and don't let go
And with you, with you-
without you
I cannot live.

This was a poem that I wrote for my poetry class first semester of last year. It is sort of based in reality but at the same time it is a little existential too.

A New Blog

Hey guys I'm going to be posting short stories and poems here from time to time so be on the look out for them. I'll start you all out with a poem that I wrote:


Time spent sitting alone,
all my thoughts turn to dusk and the long night ahead of me.
Darkness closes in and I struggle to stay afloat in consciousness
if my mind should wander too far, who will be able to recover it?
Only you, my dear friend come to save me from myself,
and for that I am thankful.

hope you like it.
