Poet's Disclaimer
This is not how I feel
I just seem to have found a knack for writing about how some people
live their lives and are willing
to accept it in dull or bitter silence.

{mooblock=When You're Sleeping}
I love you when you’re sleeping
Even more when you’re away
But when you’re in my presence
It’s just another day.
Isn’t life meant to be grander
Like Paris in the spring?
Why does it feel like stale bread
And a pocketful of lint?
I realize now what love is
Holding back my truest thoughts
Knowing they would hurt you
And that I’d rather not.

{mooblock=4 More Pages}
I’ve set a goal,
But will that just get in the way Of being Spontaneous Of living Free as spirit. Or are the muses playing Games with me, Making me think That I must write 4 more pages.
