Poems About ""
A poet once killed a man,
And all gathered to watch him hang
The sole poet, noose in neck
A death fitting for his life
Just before they hanged him
They wondered who’d tell their tales
Of their miseries and victory
They...
When a top the world you be
Before you all of life you see
You ask just like me

Standing at a cliff’s edge
Far into the sea I see
The ancient breeze drawing close
Rippling the bare sea

My heart it bakes
This thing…

This thing…
As sure as the sky is blue
All my heart wants is you!
