Mind Games.

A Poem by Tiarra Templeton
"

Another old one about another old relationship.

"
I've realized it now when I've ran out of time
Clocks spinning their hands and words blending in rhyme
Its too hard to spit out, so please hold your tongue 
With you being so young, all these words come undone
It's time for the ending, but the begining is near 
While you whisper in fear, all his thoughts disappear
But the people behind? All they can do is glare
They stop and they stare, and you're standing there 
Criss-crossing your thoughts and emotions run wild
He finally sees clearly through the eyes of a 'child'
And while the people keep talking all you can do is fight.
Wish on everything possible that things will end up alright
Your hands are still shaking and his tremble, too
Who would've thought that the same felt brand new?
You think you're not ready, and you know you're too scared
Pretending that for so long you've been so prepared.
But stop thinking so much and just hold on tight
To two lost lonely hearts and a butterfly flight
And just for tonight let your heart win over your mind
Stop thinking in rhyme, let it work out this time
Try and puzzle back pieces you know are still there
Let your heart live it's dream and show that you care.
When times running out and you're scared to death
Just do what's best and give life one last breath

Grammar might be bad. This is another older one that I found on my computer.

Powerfully expressed through poignant thoughts and emotion. So many intriguing lines but loved " To two lost lonely hearts and a butterfly flight." Your writing style and form is so sharp!

The battle to understand love. Sometime we must overcome our fear. The story in your words is very good. I like your ending. A esxcellent poem.
