James Metcalfe- Why run away


Hello People,

Happy Saturday and how's the weather? Cooling down here finally!

I was recently mailed this poem and told it was in one of my mother's books. It was printed out on color paper and it looked as if the poem had been clipped and photocopied onto the paper.  I made this photo art for the poem and hope it resonates with others. Such a brilliant piece.

Have a wonderful day and don't forget to check out my other works on Amazon and Wattpad. I'm always writing!

J.M.

The Skyliners- Since I Don't Have You

I don't have plans and schemes And I don't have hopes and dreams I don't have anything Since I don't have you I don't have fond desires And I don't have happy hours I don't have anything Since I don't have you I don't have happiness, and I guess I never will again When you walked out on me In walked old misery And he's been here since then I don't have love to share And I don't have one who cares I don't have anything Since I don't have You, you, you, you You, you, you, you You, you, you, you (You) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Skyliner  

Poor Love (Return part 2)

    You sold me on your narcissistic words. I spoke passively in turn.   Years of regret sit heavily in my chest.  Not that you accepted the memo.   So bound in what's right in front of your face, there's no possibility of a daydream.   I willed for Love to bring you into my universe. A place where our mutual desires   vanquish past mistakes.   Not lately. Always astray.   I die. Each time,   your impassive stare denies. Each and every time.   The piece of me that will always belong to you.    You remain. Skipping peace.   Poor Love,  bound by the elastic of your grace.  Joy4no1
