I wrote these in highschool. Enjoy!

Answer

As the droplets softly coat
The window the universe rings
In an annoying shrill.

I am waiting to answer
The telephone abandoned by
The silhouette of your mouth
Slowly forming words but
The Incoherent wind disappears.

My Innocent hands play
With the thought of change
I am Restless
I am Hopeless.
Please answer the phone.

Beneath this soiled ground,
A Flower dies but
Vacant Eyes still watch.

They grow….

Manhattan Cowboy

Feet stumble across sidewalks

Picking up pace, running, walking fast

As Manhattan Cowboys come to the rescue

Lights flashing everywhere here

Taxi’s racing the street, yellow streaks

Fly by my face as the rush comes ‘round

More suitcases spill out a

Canvas of subway maps

And I will feel the Rush of Monday night
