finalities




finalities

sad regression of a joyful day
return to sadness in the joyless way

search for sleep at the dusk of light
the dull refrain of a sleepless night

pulsing sadness a recurrent theme
retreat from gladness in full extreme

laugh in the face of mirthless life
cry at the meanness of soulful strife

mournful memories' full-fledged pain
would'ves and could'ves all remain

blemished dreams float in mind
blissful moments still undefined

stationary madness fated fare
unfelt pleasures beyond repair

hope-filled hopes shattered clean
hopeless results unmattered scene

destined outcomes undenied
fateful finalities justice blind

eternal knocking at unopened door
infinite waiting wanting more

standing still the edge of crime
walking toward end of time

permanent penchant for glimmering gloom
smile at the thought of a waiting tomb

all these things common felt
visions frozen fully melt

again

again if i could walk those golden streets again and sing those glad olden songs so sweet again if i could feel those pounding jungle beats again and touch those rumbling thronging beasts again if i could dance those daring double steps again and twirl the girls 'round their swinging hips again if I could swim those clear summer lakes again and float lazily where the cool current takes again if i could sit in playful grade-school seats again and draw where pencil and yellow paper meets again if i could run the asphalt baseball fields again and slap the rubber balls off car windshields again if i could fold daily newspaper sheets again in pre-dawn drowsiness on city streets again if i could gaily play in hot summer rains again and watch the water run into sewer-drains again if i could tackle tough and rumble players again and run through football teams like a laser again if i could frolic in frigid cold and icy snow again and not fear near fro...
