As Boorish As Myself - Valvin Lee Jeanty
THROON
Memoirs of Tomorrow
Somewhere in the hands of time
I wrote a poem that would not rhyme
And readers to love it I could not find
Today shows that slowly I would lose my mind
So that very same day I gave up writing
I gave up hope, yes I stopped lying
For if you saw their faces there was no denying
The art in my great heart is surely dying
As My
My confidant, my shoulder
Wings as I lost my sober
Dark days you make whole
My light, my life you console
The Shadow Against
The shadow against the ocean floor
Follows from shore to shore
From the Island of Sicily
To the open ends of St. Martinique
Searching high and low for a friend
Probing for a purpose in the end
No, I cannot float anymore
How I knew the days before
But this new turn I see
Is all the sands beneath the sea
I am to land no more
How did your world find me a bore
The shadow against the ocean floor
The shadow against you nevermore
Presence
I’d melt away with you this 14th of February,
And I’ll love you always beyond extraordinary.
Cupid has little to do with this happy ending.
Bandit, you stole your smile straight outta heaven...
I’ll be damned, only if I will be it with you.
Raindrops never make it to hell, I’d say, Who knew?
Out Again
Fly away, fly away
I gave my life unto yesterday
A dream she told
In words of gold
