I will, I willA Poem by Ricky L. Walters
I will have the will and somehow find the way
To come through the haze of these ashen days Because goddamn it there isn't anything out there Strong enough to kill me And life's fearsome ragged blows Do nothing but amuse me I'm the man down at the shore Screaming at the tide Demanding the waters to forever recede Fully expecting them to f*****g abide And I will have the will and somehow find the way To squeeze through every key hole of the doors that block my way Because you haven't got in you to finally pull the trigger You got a lot of heart kid but mine is a little bigger And if you are lost come judgment day You know where you can find me Standing on a roof top drunk The world burning all around me I will have the will and somehow find the way To have a gentle exit when I really shouldn't stay Because I'm taking a different path on the crossroads set in front of me I'm tired of all the f*****g circles and you always out in front of me I will blaze a trail down paths You are too afraid to walk Leaping to my death While you stand around and talk © 2010 Ricky L.
