Writing

poem by: M Losthere
Written on Dec 22, 2015

<i>  I was up all night,  
Didn’t make it to bed. 
Didn’t hear a word she said
Just writing poems kept me awake

Trying to figure out what should rhyme
Trying to not waste to much time
How many words will I need 
To make this poem one to keep

Another day is here to for the taking
How many mistakes will I keep making
Time has come for eyes or so it seems
I need glasses even when I dream

Doe’s what I write make any sense
Will others who read this take offense
Should I continue on or take a break
Or will my words sound more than fake

When will I know my poem is complete
Is there something I should go back and delete
As the bottom of the page comes into view
I try to think up something new

I think it’s time to wrap up this session
I hope I have made a good impression 
I think it’s time to get out of this chair
I hope this is judged by those who are fair

Wow .you must keep writing. You really have a passion for poetry. The joy of poetry is the words change every time you look at them They become like individuals they seem to take on their own form.
