Sundown

Contributed by Hoo on Sunday, 5th March 2006 @ 10:18:59 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Sundown
Reminiscing on the day’s events
Week’s events
Year’s events
This life hasn’t been so bad
Take off my boots and bend my toes

Sitting

Rocking

Thinking

Stretch out my legs and take another sip

At ease

Eyeing the crowded horizon
Minutes turn to hours
The cool night’s breeze hits my face

Feeling alright

Take one more pull off this cigarette
Breathe deep

Sundown

I arise
In order to retire for the night
Leaving the porch
Entering the house
The evening’s last drag seems to soothe my soul
Walking past a mirror
I turn
Smile
Knowing my strengths
My weaknesses
Understanding myself

Ascending the stairs
I peer down at my hands
Visibly strong
But it’s only an illusion
They’re not strong enough
For they allowed her to slip right through my grasp
A few memories stir
No true emotions felt

Too tired

Too much time spent already
Retiring to my bed
Thoughts of tomorrow
Another day’s work
Working hard for you

And yet

I still don’t know who you are

Sunrise

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
