the whispers of passion,
the heavenly sight of that one special person,
the "one",
the forever who makes life easy,
they who are the brave hero,
whisking you off your feet,
into a never never land,
where you live happily ever after.
*sigh*
no worries,
no responsibilities to anyone,
just you and they,
forever in blissful love,
together,
and maybe children at your feet,
always smiling,
happiness,
joy,
add of course,
enough momey to
make the whole world happy too.

excuse me, please.

you have never met me before,
but I am your alarm clock,
I sit on the nightstand next to your bed,
and you rarely set me,
but the other day, you knocked me off the nightstand
and somehow I was set,
and it's a good thing too,
because your 3 year old
(yes, she turned three the day you were too high to notice)
hasn't eaten since last night,
she needs her breakfast
that you were supposed to have had ready for her
3 hours ago.
I know your husband has lost his job
because of that broken ankle,
and no health insurance to cover
the cost of the cast
which was the paycheck
you gave to the bill collector
to try and salvage your credit
after buying that boat,
and I know this wasn't part of the fairytale,
but I am just the alarm clock,
so please ....don't
"shoot the messenger".
I would have told you sooner,
but you were too busy
listening to the voices outside,
and by the way,
your neighbor is knocking on the door,
and he's pissed because
your trashcan got blown over by the wind last night
and made scratches on his
BMW.
and in case you are wondering,
no,
he has no mercy to speak of,
in fact, he needs the number
of your insurance company.
(you know, the one you don't have).
●●●●●
now this may not be adding up to your expectations,
I totally understand that,
and I would give a suggestion
if I thought you could handle it,
but I know your xanax is all gone.
please be kind to me,
for I am just an alarm clock,
and I may be famous one day,
I have dreams too,
you know?
don't laugh!
just look at the cups and saucers in beauty and the beast!!!
●●●●
one day I will have my dream too.
;-)

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."
"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
Excellent
Hi i am just another poet on here. Great job i really did enjoy your writting and the style of writting you used (if it is any) very abstract i say bravo!
@FLboy555
Yes, thank you for reading,
Yes, thank you for reading, Flboy555. I think that is pretty much me. Abstract and plain. I can't say I mind it. It's very liberating. Thank you for your comment.

nightlight
nightlight this was a very informative, creative, wake up call poem. the title is perfect and the way you expressed yourself in this poem had me hanging on your every word. children are far more important than drugs. get rid of them and take care of your kids. find a way to get insurance. don't give up and listen to the alarm clock it's pretty damn smart.
