PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Once upon a time

it was all so simple

but those days are gone

Now I look out

at the world

my sight shattered

         by false illusions

others simply laugh

unaware of the grave

             consequences

Life echoes

in my consciousness

             but

I can barely hear

I hold the gold piece tightly

but it does little good for

               my fallen heart

I sink in despair at the loss

of lifefullness and no one

even notices at all

People walk along as the clock

tick tocks thru the hours

and days go flying by

The Big Clock strikes

9 0’Clock  10 0’Clock

         Life goes on

      beyond all

            natural rhyme

but does anyone notice

its passage at all?
