    • is unsure if the poetry I've written lately is too angsty/private/poorly written to post or not. Hmmmm.

    Yesterday

    Yesterday I cried for the last time for the first time

    I never thought this day would come

    When I could write down my thoughts in rhyme

    Now I can finally return home

    My life is at an end and it more than I can express

    I'm ready to go back home

     

    All that's left of me is all yours

    I know where the glory goes

    All that's left of me is all you need

    I gotta show them in word and deed

    'You're wonderful' is all I can say

    I can do nothing for you but obey

     

    Yesterday I laughed for the first time for the last time

    I never thought I'd see the sun

    When I finally repented for all my horrid crimes

    Took the offering of your son

    There's nothing left of me that has worth

    Anything good in me is from you

    Yesterday I cried (laughed) for the last time for the first time is a great line

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
