I guess I'll start my blog off with some of my poetry. It kind of describes who I am I guess, how I think about things. Writing poetry is pretty sporadic for me, it usually occurs when I am down in the dumps (now thats some motivating shit right there!
) If anyone actually reads these, I would love feedback. I'm also always looking for a little inspiration
"Lonely"
I am so lonely
Time passes slowly
I wither in its retrospect
Time is undefeated, an enigma to all
It has beaten me, I am on my knees
I look up, time sneers
Not a twinkle, not even a glimpse of remorse
Hope faded, an eternity ago
I cannot make it, insurmountable odds
I am so lonely
"Love"
A longing for a feeling that I have yet to experience
Awkwardness abounds with inexperience at the forefront of my problems
Worrying that life is passing, will I realize
That I need to try harder, pursue my interests with conviction
Make the first move, just not my forte
Making a move at all, just not in my repertoire of actions
I secretly wish to God that it was
Confide in another, listen to their troubles
Outstretched arms in a time of need, feel the same comfort in turn
Stare into eyes that exude everything that you are not, questioning if this is real
True humanity, true love, true respect
Maybe it's not for me, destiny getting in the way of desire
Try as I might, desperation begins to creep
I wonder if I am alone in this feeling
When "Hello" is a strain, how could I ever tell
Fortuitous glances heighten my senses only to be let down
By my own fear, by my own awkwardness
When you make something of nothing, the only direction you can go is down
Hope, the only thing keeping me going
Eventually, a common word utilized in my speeches within myself
Love, soon to be recognized and pursued
Lark, something we could experience, a memory
Open, striving to be this with someone else
"The Final Act"
Sapphire eyes stare, straight ahead
Azure starlight, a true-blue path
In this moment, a flicker from the barrel
The last moment, fate has struck again
"Beauty Personified"
Nubian goddess, you take me
Piercing glare, unwavering stance
Tempting destiny, our eyes meet
The battle was won, before it had begun
Nubian goddess, you slay me
