'Perish Not' - A Poem by Joy
Perish Not
Things, persons, some are meant to be Those things, persons, others are not Some things make me freeze Other things make me breathe Still, others do not
Perhaps its reason Perhaps its treason Perhaps its not the season Perhaps its just me or he or she Now, I definitely do not know, by mayhap, someday I will
Pray tell, pray tell, help me foretell Help me see underneath this starry sky which is shy before I perish without light Help me see beneath this stormy wave which is wavy before I grieve in the light I feel, I feel, I feel, yet, I cannot perceive in this smoky bottle I call home I try, and try, and try to rise, to rise, to rise and rise but I can not conceive
What is it I seek, a purpose in life, a dose of sleep? something meek? something slick? a freck? I know not, I know not, but I feel, yes, yes I feel. I try and try, but I can not conceive, I am in this dull bull of a mock Nothing I see, nothing, nothing but yes I feel
I am engulfed in a sea of darkness smoky with smug and rust and dust This is all I see..great lengths of sadness Not heights of brightness for nothingness is here
Nothingness will never disappear Nothingness will never perish Nor shall I..but never fear for I aim high Like a solitary bird in flight Aiming high to do high.... |
Thank you Joy
