Poem Commentary

A poem about an amazing 17 year old boy who knows my every thought. ^.^ He's definately an old soul like me. Dedicated to Alexx. ♥

He Sees Through My Lens

Listen to jazz, as I fall to sleep.

So all that I dream, collapse in a heap...

of trombones and saxes

of warm, soapy beats.

This is so easy.

 

To take off my skins,

throw them to the ground.

Walk out in ripped jeans and laugh in a crowd.

Turn on the TV

and stare at the clouds.

So much in one evening.

 

Can't even describe the speed of this pen.

As it touches down, I'll spin it again.

To write a new rhyme,

just where to begin..

It's been chosen for me.

 

And I would've sworn

it's under my bed.

The iPod turned off,

but it plays on instead.

I love the meter and flow to this poem. It seems effortless, which is a great thing. :D

Thank you :D ♥

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
