Serendipitous EpiphanyA Poem by Jamie F. Nugent
While I glance across the road
You're there looking bored It's me your walking toward, Tell me something you've adored, And I'll tell you something that I hate, All these feelings that are poured, All those chances too late, When they are laid to rest, You hope for the best, But you expect the worst Because you think you should &, You feel that you must When there's no one you trust, Except your mother & aunts, And your pen pal in France, Because she's not lost in lust, She's just too scared to love & you feel the same, Like life is just this game, That goes on & on, Your head weighs a tonne, Because you're still not done, Deciding where to run, When you run away, when you don't want to play, This game anymore, It's really such a bore, It sends slivers to your core, It quivers down your spine, You have your worries, And I have mine, But I still would not mind, Spending some time, With you, I'll be true, Through & through, Never stumble, I'll never fall, I will just call, Out for you, All that I drink, Is water from your sink, Along with the pill, That stops me from being ill, That sails down my throat, Like a barge or a boat, I swallow it down, Along with my pride, I've everything to say, I've nothing to hide, And I would have lied If I were to say 'You did not take all of my Breath away' When you smile that way From across the street, Where our eyes meet, I become undone, I will run Over to you, My darling one. -Jamie F.
