Favorite Quote:
I don't have ambitions or desires.
Being a poet isn't my ambition,
it's my way of being alone.
~ Fernando Pessoa ~


I chased the small diamonds
as i searched through their
minds,
searching for the right one
He
Never
Showed
it hit me,
a bullet to the chest,
the aftermath much worse,
the thought darted through
my mind, desperately
trying to escape,
that there will never be the
right one
i stop, melt, and become
the small road they travel


The author's comments:
I love to read and write, and i love looking at art, even though i can't draw. when i grow up i hope to be an author, pshychologist, or work with autistic children.

Very bleak, but very insightful and very beautiful. I believe poetry, no matter what it is written about should captivate a certain kind of beauty. You certainly did a fine job accomplishing that. Bravo. Please check out some of my stuff, particularly "Just a Guy" Thanks:)
