Midnight Poem

I have things to say

Nothing original 

You know that already

I like how well you know that 

I am not profound 

I called myself a writer 

I let you read what I wrote too 

I recited my works aloud 

For you 

To hear them in my voice; and that is my why 

I take the time 

To take the time 

Be Still is my mantra 

So, I tell you everything, I feel 

Every feeling becomes more real 

I take your picture 

So I can continue on loving you 

I can keep you, seeing you 

The way you once looked 

At me 

Your eyes glassy with truths 

Only I can see 

I tell you, I feel every ounce of it 

The weight you carry 

Makes me want to hold you more 

A person cannot live their whole entire life 

Without soup 

That is not a life worth living 

There is so much 

I didn’t not know 

I get perspective. 

So many 

People are more gifted than me, or less 

And, I have everything In life 

Or I have nothing 

Depending on the day, both 

Glass can be blown under a flame 

Or it can shatter when you let go 

Love whispers and waits 

Beauty waiting to born, it cannot be 

Kept safely at a distance 

So I will be a dream chaser 

I will also go nowhere 

And dream of what will come to me 

There is no reason 

I just will 

And now it is already 

Tomorrow
