Do You Understand

Do You Understand

A Poem by John Patrick Robbins AKA Gonzo

Beside the water i feel the winds push towards something beyond reason.

As children we die into adulthood closing dreams as doors and losing the spark to grasp goals not always are own.

 

A roadmap to nowhere lines of worry curse my face.

As for friends I put little in stock as the page is a prison my words a epitah of

a long put off destruction my futures  cryptic  path.

 

Paper latterns hollow in warmth im the ghost who can only haunt my own soul.

Darkest dreams of a glimmer of light.

Page of nothing my stories have found there demise.

 

For who am I ? 

 

A poets thought a darkend soul.

Treason my worries will you ever see the face of a madmans regrets.

Dark waters to which I steer cast my thoughts apon the wind.

I wish to know the sunset and to understand it's final vision.

 

A trainwreck is a far better path than a slow fade into obsecurity.

Tommorows are moments and thoose moments i no longer thirst to see.

 

As a lattern apon the water drifts in a vanishing glimmer.

It writes a beauthy of passing moments to which seldom go

ignored.

Author's Note

John Patrick Robbins AKA Gonzo
Not all works must be lights into one's self.
Nor are we but one diminsional puppets of lifes stage.
I like to use words as a almost emotinal paint.

For we have no hold over the readers thought for only the mind behind the words truely understands.

Thank you for reading

You drive us deep inside you... that glimpses of the question.. who am I? Yes.. it can be a haunting world of shadows.. and shifting scenes that make no sense as we fade.. or glow.
