Sleeping In The Ocean

I'm loving everything the pain
and the rainbow and the rain
loving every loss and the gain
.
Because even if i start again
and wash the sins to be a saint
I just wont feel like a grown man
.
so I will sit on the surface
to figure out my purpose
floating like waves, my thoughts
.
and every word I say
just pushes me away
I cant hold on, cant let go
.
always been a wayward son
every time you try to run
lost in the shadows, left undone
.
stuck between the love and hate
you try to fake and imitate
but it's all too little, too late
.
so I sit by the ocean
I swim in emotions
I wonder if I have some
.
they all got a purpose
some are done some are just words
but I wonder if I have one
.
loving every rise and fall
tear, is my favorite song
I close my eyes, and I sing along
.
all in all I'm just a man
distracted but not insane
may be one day I'll start it all again
.
but till then I'm here
so don't cry my dear
I'll be always by your side
.
I'm weak but I give you
my words, I'll protect you
until your day is bright
and you find your light
may be it will be my goodbye
.
.
I'm staring at the stars
as he is healing my scars
.
all these memories
deep inside of me
.
I can't hold them on
I can't let them go
.
they are a part of me
they remind me of you

The Eastern Leonard Cohen

Wallace Stevens with a guitar. Great title! Enjoyed so much the syntax, the grammatical devices work well for creating rhythm with pauses (caesura) that were wondrous. How much you have grown to make words do this to the reader - Just B - Stella

haha! that's a really big

haha! that's a really big compliment, thank you so much:) whenever I don't put effort in my poem they sound good to others! I just wrote whatever was on my mind.. I think it's because I have been reading others' work and that gave me ideas to play with words.. and funny thing, I actually wrote a song but I think it sounds fine as a poem too. once again, thanks you.
