nonsense

1108/1992

Sometimes I wish I could start all over

I find myself wishing on a four-leaf clover

Mostly things never go my way

There is always tomorrow, it's a new day

The end comes too fast, life is so short

Some treat it like it was a joke or a sport

Only out to have their fun

Why does the kid in the corner hold a gun?

What is the need is it for power?

Is this the time or even the hour?

The day, the hour surely draws near

But he has a gun and nothing but fear

If he had a chance to start new and begin

You know it like I, he'd do it again. . .

I wrote this poem in high school. I searched for more high school poetry but couldn't find anything that I wanted to share. This why there is a gap between the first post and the next which isn't until 1994.

This is really old. You've been writing for 22 years?

I wrote this in HS when I lived with my parents... I have returned to the same spot and same room renovated 22 years later...
