Poem: Embrace the Cold

I walked in the rain

Feeling reborn

Fresh out the womb

Into the cold

There was no one else

I was alone

Sad at the bleak misery

Everything was again gray

A melancholy world

And you know what I thought

I thought “this is fine”



I was fine with the loneliness

I embraced the solitude

Where others craved happiness

I knew I wanted sad

Life is about balance

And I’m close to finding mine



Wrap me in melancholy

Numb my emotions

I wanna feel down

I’m gonna be chill

Life is real

Real sad (haha)

There’s more to be sure

But I’m fine in the gray rain



*Note: I think with a little more editing this might be one of my faves.

Poem: Self Defeat

A guy who believes in nothing
How do you get him down?
A man who can’t express himself in a simple smile or frown
There is nothing you can do
That he himself has not done

For he thinks of all the negative and bad
Before your chance can even be had
A self defeatist some may say
He feels as if he never has his way

Life is unfair he thinks
Then he curses himself for thoughts so weak
Who is on his side if he is not his own ally
Who believes in a man who doesn’t believe

No one
That’s who
