First time I'm ever showing someone my writing
Untitled
Lately, only sleep brings relief
From the struggle to breathe
In this stifling heat.
Penetrating clouds of mind
With the soul heavily twined
As sole companion, but
With this understanding
That at the end of the day,
Here in this mire I will lay
Withering in disbelief.
====================
Wandering Cloud
Somehow lost, I'm walking
through these empty fields.
No sounds can be heard,
but the howling of the wind
and dust falling in its wake.
Barren this land, as my heart
Where nothing ever seems
to grow. What is it then that's
preventing for any rain to fall?
==============

Summer has long flown by
But its departure wasn't known
Until the comfort of the night
Was replaced by day's weight
Gone were those idle times
For they proved worthless
In the coming of the winter
Leaving only the cold behind
How regretful it may have been
But it couldn't be helped
That somewhere along the way
A person ended up dead
