Page Me Out An Elegy

Page Me Out An Elegy

A Poem by JC Pire

Today I'm a cynic of your cause

I won't bring poison to your jaws

Just as I hope you won't with mine

With that turned round and laced my wine


I wish I could ride the bus for longer

In the holy name, I wish I was stronger

For what he curses, he curses mine

I hope you mature and age in time


You just found you were bound in sin

You like Jesus but don't believe in him

And finally you now awaken

To see the things you could've taken

Now I know that feeling true

That I haven't any feeling for you


Grumble, you grumble for no real truth

You're conflicted in old age and youth

There's an old soul there between the skin

This is a young man's world you're living in


Page me out an elegy

I have done the same for thee

It's one line long and ends begin

If god chose you, he chose a king


I just need closure to whether I cross

I've come so far without any loss

To lose what you need is parcel of

But sometimes it's worth for what you love

You're always bruised, but never bloodied

So sit back, move on and never worry


You've gotta fast car and I got this bus

They both fulfill the life in us

I'm coming out my home for good

One year later than I ever should


It's ten minutes into the hour

I can feel the atmosphere getting sour

Abraham, you're as wise as wood

But you're a fool to keep a life withstood


C'mon boy, you should know by now

You're never a man if you pull the plough

C'mon boy, you should know by now

You're never a man if you pull the plough
