Cowards,
Living,
Dying,
In recurring cycles of
366,
365,
Leap years
Regular years,
Multiples in grieving years.
Fearful,
Entertaining fear,
But fear only draws death near,
Lacking courage,
Absence thereof,
The tragedy in your years.
Embracing sorrow,
Your perfect morrow,
Tears in tears,
Tearstained years,
The coward’s alive,
Good company,
Walls reeking decayed dreams,
Knitting quilts in daydreams,
Ambition,
Your nemesis,
Contentment,
Settling,
Your life’s perfect kiss.
Fairytale,
A tale,
Entailing,
Square pegs and round holes,
Sadly,
Your happily ever after,
Remains bitter sweet,
That unfulfilled you,
Tragedy,
Forever your cowardice.
You said it all bro....well done.....

ReplyDeleteJoey, you're welcome bro. i'd only appreciate the bigger stage if you guys promise to be in the front row. I've come this far with you guys being my greatest support...thank you too....
ReplyDeleteJust the other day men i lived the these words in this poem.. entertaining fear et perfect tomorrow.. but i'm too good now. You have to school me on how to get this things plainly out with words. great work keep it up.
ReplyDeleteEddie, in trying we might fail, then again we might succeed but whichever the end result, trust me, we've become better as people just by taking initiative instead of cowering under fear. i remember when i first picked up a phone and called the offices of the Daily Graphic newspaper. i almost hang up the phone there and then. i followed through and learnt a valuable lesson, you stand to loose nothing by seeking things that seem impossible at face value....you loose absolutely nothing at all. it is when we do nothing and get comfortable by making excuses that we end up loosing a lot....
