Sweat No More.

Sweat No More.

On my way home, I know I gotta work it,
The atmosphere is empty and I could never fill it,
On my own, I miss being lonely, and the sense of things
around me, I'm swinging from electric wires,
I should weep but I'm too tired.

Innocence says she has never been kissed
But a stranger’s sweets always taste the best,
Bend your finger back like this,
And put the structure to the test.

Without the roots there can be no tree,
without you I cannot be.
Without the sky there is no sun,
without the bottle it’s no fun.

I long for the day when T.V. can preach,
and take advantage of 'freedom of speech',
regret nothing and withstand the heat,
be afraid and learn to teach.

I may not be right, but I’m here right now,
find a way to get through somehow.
Your punctuation is a breaking bone,
Keep telling myself 'it's time I left myself alone'.

In this desert is my oasis;
a liquid that has filled the spaces,
I'm falling over untied laces,
the strangest sweets I ever tasted.

How odd. Feels like two stories put together here. I gotta say the TV does preach tho - all the time - you gotta do this, what we should do about that: all the "filler" they stick in with the news. Anyhow - the rhyme is good!

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. Â©
