in her world now












in her world now

she tried to hide her awkwardness
and all the other's gawkwardness
she tried to glide but only fell
she died inside her silent hell

her face and hands weren't beautiful
like all the other girls at school
she never really quite fit in
she died inside her silent sin

she liked to draw and liked to paint
afraid to show others who might taint
the worlds she saw upon white
and visited them all by night

her fingers stained with oils bright
colors were her sole delight
she made a place inside a wall
she hid her worlds away from all

she made her music in her heart
no one else could be a part
she sang inside a blue-made tune
in front of the dark's yellow moon

her inner would was all she had
soon others saw that she was mad
but she alone knew the self-made life
was the only place she'd be free from strife

she disappeared one autumn day
when all were on a holiday
she went to someplace she had made
where all the things she loved now staid

her paintings one day were all found
people passed her worlds all around
they shook their heads in sad dismay
and put them all upon display

she sings and paints in her world now
was more than happy to disavow
what she had lost and left behind
to all the people who were blind

old friends

old friends searched online for former friends surprised to see untimely ends friends, their spouses, moms and dads sad to see the deaths they had the inexorable tick and tock of time, leads us all to fields, sublime through twisting, turning hands of fate, soon we'll all be known as "late" years roll on, time is passed no one knows how long it lasts each life is counted out by days as friends we oft go separate ways friend's faces show the lines of age as each one turns his separate page fools fleeting time waits for no man eighty years our lives may span so count your days with special care for who knows how, who knows where our beating hearts will one day stop find old friends before they drop © 2014 ajwrites57 A Long ❤ ❤ ❤ Image adapted:  By SDRandCo via morguefile.com

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...
