THE WRITER.

The elder poet

They say a writer write so well .

When times are really sad.

It seems the reason for it .

Is because he is so sad.

 

Riches lost. Or a love is gone.

Or the passing of a friend.

Of songs once heard. Or hands once held.

Or returning of a ring.

 

Or lips that never touched .

Or lovers never gone too far.

Or never gone at all.

Like children walking for the first time . 

 

You know that they must fall.

I'm not one such writer. But I try to do it well.

I try to live my life each day as though it wasn't hell.
