others may have wine, i have poetry

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute.

We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.

And the human race is filled with passion.

And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.

But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

whatever is happening to me

life is getting boring
things are getting mundane
and i am growing tired
of playing this waiting game
i am sick of all these thoughts
i think i'm going insane
my words don't make sense
they are bordering next to lame
and these that fill myhead
fill me up with shame
all i want to do is focus
and achieve my treasured aim
i'm not asking for anything else
don't want luck, power or fame
whatever i ma going through
has no scientific name
and nothing invented yet
can make my wild heart tame
and for this state that i'm in
i have only me to blame
