School
3 short poems written while bored in school. Not my favourites, but seeing as I've had zero inspiration lately, I take what I can.
It's the streets of the old
Dirty, broken
Just like them
They brought their own misfortune
They brought their own doom
Nowhere in sight life
Just an endless road
That we have to follow
Cursing the choices
Of the old
If counting the stars in the sky
Will bring you back to me
I would travel the world
Never losing count
So that at the end of my life
On that final star
Wish to be by your side
Forever
And beyond
Time ticks away slowly
Stillness and quiet
There's nowhere thoughts
can go
Tic
Am I to forever be without you
Am I to forever be alone
Am I to forever be cursed
With this maddening silence
Toc
Like trapped in a maze
I can't find an exit
Everywhere I go there's something
Keeping me in place
Tic
No escape, no life
Without you I'm left at nothing
Please
Toc
It has to be you
It's the streets of the old
Dirty, broken
Just like them
They brought their own misfortune
They brought their own doom
Nowhere in sight life
Just an endless road
That we have to follow
Cursing the choices
Of the old
If counting the stars in the sky
Will bring you back to me
I would travel the world
Never losing count
So that at the end of my life
On that final star
Wish to be by your side
Forever
And beyond
Time ticks away slowly
Stillness and quiet
There's nowhere thoughts
can go
Tic
Am I to forever be without you
Am I to forever be alone
Am I to forever be cursed
With this maddening silence
Toc
Like trapped in a maze
I can't find an exit
Everywhere I go there's something
Keeping me in place
Tic
No escape, no life
Without you I'm left at nothing
Please
Toc
It has to be you
