Alvin Willis Poems

I never wanted to be your best
Cause it felt like it was a test

And I didn’t want to be a choice
...

Run with me
so that i can hope

fly with me
...

Like a snail contesting in the midst
The tired wind leisurely drifts about
Although it feels no utter shame
For its monotonous game
...

My heart lies still
As my mind rages war
Of love gone by
And not yet replace
...

I awake to a darken bliss
With no one around to care less
Nor an inner peace within
That would lift me to an end
...

I sometimes wonder
About my angelic sender

Unheard cries
...

They say I'm strange
For I have no range

They say I'm too old
...

Would it torture my mind
Of things I know not

If I was dreaming of things
...

Roaring thunder lights up the
violet sleepy skies.

The taste of coldness
...

Say what Say what—
Forget the hype
I’m no stereotype
Just A Tall, Lean, Bronze Brotha
...
