Just a poem

My song.


When I was young,

And free, and strong

I made a song

With just one word


It was in June,

And had one tune

But found out soon

It was absurd.


July, I wrote

Another note

The best, I thought

Was ever heard


August, I knew

Two words were few,

And time was due

To write a third


September days

Were full of haze,

blurry displays

My brain was blurred


I was confined

Deep to my mind,

Trying to find

Word number three


Winter was bad,

Gloomy, and sad

All it could add

Was grief to me


But then again

I thought the rain

locked up my brain

Then lost the key


There was a hole

Down in my soul,

Deeper than all

Ditches of hell


Letters, were fine

Yet, were not mine

The bottom line

I was not well.


They disappear

Behind my fear

I look, I hear

But cannot tell


In endless space

I lost my face

And left no trace

Or crumbs of bread


Like anticipated,

After I waited,

Followed dictated

Orders, as said


What was the use

If that abuse

Was an excuse

For life instead?


During the quest

To find a rest

Inside my chest

And in my head


Forgot the note,

That I first wrote,

And always thought

Best, ever said


Softly a chime

Like babies' rhyme

Time after time,

Puts them to sleep


When I was young,

And free and strong

I made a song

But could not keep


Was it in June

And had one tune?

It's not too soon

Now to find out


What was that word

That was absurd,

And no one heard

Really about?
