The Storm Overhead (spur of the moment poem)

 



The Storm Overhead


The storm overhead

Cannot compete with the storm

In my mind

As it thinks about you.


The storm overhead

Cannot compete with the storm

In my veins

As they're yearning for you.


The storm overhead

Cannot compete with the storm

In my heart 

As it loves what it lost.


The storm overhead

Cannot compete or come close

To this storm that haunts me

Like an ethereal ghost.


It ignites like the lightning

And thunders your name

The storm overhead

And in me are the same.

When I Could Come Home To You

 

You Never Wrote a Poem

 













You Never Wrote A Poem

(observation of narcissistic writers)


You never wrote a poem

Extolling sentiment

Your words always felt guilty

Never innocent


Your words were full

But full of emptiness

Hiding in a verse or rhyme

Devoid of luminescence


You never wrote a poem

That one could love

You wrote of things below

And not above


You wrote of terror

Like something to be praised

Something buried 

Waiting to be raised


Your words were lying lips

That smiled so sweet

Yet every word you wrote

Dripped with deceit


You never wrote a poem

That was believed

But when the ending finally came

The reader was relieved


Where humble poets of other sorts

Spread rhymes of mirth

No one could ever ascertain

Your rhyming's worth


Perhaps no gift but great potential

You hide behind your eyes

And you may write a lovely line

To catch us by surprise


But you've never written anything 

That to a heart rang true

It's clear you never wrote a poem

That wasn't about you.
