Sea GreenA Poem by Simon WelshI'm tearing up old, terrible poetry
All the ringos lie among the beetles
I'm tearing up old, terrible poetry to remind me of what I've lost I don't really trust ordinary people they lost faith in me years ago Sometimes I wonder why I need a soul This empty body is bruised enough I shake my head and ash falls out even my psyche misses second hand smoke It's too stressful to be around people and they find excuses to get close to me just to push me away when they believe they have found much more Sea green and electric blue My inner world is much more beautiful ...sometimes I am a jigsaw piece in the wrong box They want to cut my mind just to fit me in the wrong place No one shallow can bleed and I only identify with those who feel the same itami as I The more you learn about a person the sadder you are when they leave The more you learn about a person the sadder it is when they don't need you © 2015 Simon Welsh |
