Poetry COrner
Welcome! Below are some samplings of my poetry. My style is cadence-based rather than scheme-based, like you might hear at a poetry night. All of this poetry comes from a very real place. Join me on a journey of asking hard questions with some unwanted answers and exploring deeper meanings… - Scott
Inspired to remain
“The wind still remains
Over the surface of the deep
Sometimes
It becomes a rushing force
That brings the proud to their knees
Other times
It's a gale that changes course
That yearns to rage inside of me”
Waking up
Where have I gone
Where have I been
The stupor
The hangover
Is finally at its end
This roulette I've grown accustomed to
This tinkering with my fate
My search for truth is at an end
I'm finally willing to close and lock this gate
Uncertainty is now what warms me
My logic, flawed as it may be
Will never comfort me
Again
Oscillation
This newfound hope I have, it wanes
When you're away
It waxes like the moon
When I'm standing in the blue
Aware and afraid
All the same
But that's just fine for you
I'm tired of this oscillation
Obsessive over my fascination
Of this life that's merely justification
Of a series of choices made in placation
Of a terrifying God
That rules over a horrifying world
With a terrible destiny
Release me
From these chains that bind me
This existence, it bores me
I've dreamt of love only
Knowing it waits for me
Beyond the horizon
At the edge of the sea
