The ManA Poem by Doug JohnsonThis is just yet another poem that I don't understand at all. It is mine, but that doesn't mean I know what I was thinking when I wrote it.I am the man that never smiles Never laughs, never cries Never sings or sobs Never lives. I am the man in the shadows In the darkness In the caves, the caverns And in the silence I am the man that never knows Never understands Never hears The man in the dark I am the waiting man The watching Ever present, ever ready Simply waiting, waiting and watching Some never see things the same way Some never know my perspective Some are hidden in their own worlds And never see those of others I am the man that sees it all I am the man that knows Knowing only the things he shouldn’t Seeing only the grass that doesn’t grow. I am the man on the wall The watcher in the night The protection of the people The silent guard with only one small light I am the man that you never see I am the man that waits I am the man that nobody knows But I am also the man that is always there © 2013 Doug JohnsonReviews
