clearing my head

clearing my head

A Poem by Taylor Williams
"

honestly, i just wrote. im not trying to make a poem i just had to get it off my chest and this is what came out. i dont care if its good or if anyone likes it, i just wanted to clear my head

"
what happened to me
where are my golden ways?
where did i go wrong and instead of joy
begin this tragic song, 
oh, how i long
to find some solace for my heart
to once again, find my light in the dark
what happened to the warmth of the sun
and where in my life, are it's golden rays gone

i miss the days
of knowing nothing but all still made sense
oh how i miss 
that childhood bliss, found in ignorance
god where are the days
when just being happy
was perfectly okay 
why has the sun gone, leaving nothing,
not a reminder of, its warmth and rays

Love the rhyme scheme on this piece.

Fav line: "that childhood bliss, found in ignorance"
I often wonder myself, but we can't go back and that's just that!

I have a poem, To Be Young, which is very similar in tone. What happened to the happy days indeed. Kudos, my good man.

Ah, the innocence of our childhood taken away by relentless time, the days when simple things, like a sunny day in the month of may was all we needed, indeed wanted, then our hormones flash and all things change, we need more and life becomes complicated, mixed emotions tumble in turmoil, then we begin to cry..

Good work :O)
