Snippets

[followingwords]

(These are just small little bits that never became actual poems.)

Harlequin paint
Jester mask
Fool them all
Make them laugh
~
Sometimes at night I start to see
Things that really shouldn't be.
~
And this dream I dreamed.
It was a strange dream.
Of monsters and fairies
And other such things.
~
And then I cried a thousand tears
And then wept a million more
For despite all my fears
You still walked out that door
~
Hide the paleness hide the sleep
So they won't know when I weep
~
Sometimes life is funny
Sometimes life is sane
Sometimes you have to wonder
Where life gets its name
~
And there are words for which I pray,
Words I think, but you won't say.
But then life never goes my way...
~
And we loved more than love could take
And we loved so our hearts did break
And though we'll always wonder why
Wings, I've wished, for heart to fly
~
And if I sleep this sleep of death
Than maybe I will find
That this sleeping of dark death
Was never really mine

Notes: I believe that I may have tried to turn some of these into actual poems but they just didn't turn out very well.
