Confusion – Poem

Jakob — Mon, 09 Jan 2006 18:00:11 +0000

Past coming alive,
Future becoming clouded,
Memories draining,
Thoughts provoking,
Mind restraining,
Heart lost,
Lost in the midst,
Midst of old,
Midst of new,
Forgetting past,
In favor of future,
Hoping for the continuation,
Continuation of Hope,
Better days,
They are here,
Keeping them going,
The only possible plan.

Confusion – Poem

another poem

Jakob — Thu, 17 Nov 2005 03:23:00 +0000

Each of course was written by me and meaning something at the time it was written and something to me now of course as well….

It is time to toss the dice;
Are we Men or are we Mice;
It is time to toss the dice;

Where do our fortunes lie;
When the light of day begins to die;
Where do our fortunes lie;

Hope begins to wane;
And we fear its all been in vain;
Hope begins to wane;

For the sky is all gloom;
Yet we fight the feeling of doom;
For the sky is all gloom.

It is time to toss the dice;
For we are Men not Mice;
It is time to toss the dice.

I found my collection of poems I have written in the past. Not sure why, but this is one of my fav poems I have ever written…

Red Sorrow

The room is dimly lit,
Soft drops heard in the darkness,
Despair the steadfast companion,
The drops are close,
Sitting back hands red,
Tears the color of pain,
Life leaking out,
Dripping to the ground,
Leaving only weakness,
Struggling to rise,
The final blow comes,
Falling past reality,
Falling into the darkness.
