David Thomas Poems

i've figured it out,
what it is that makes me sad.
it's that no matter where,
everywhere i look, i see hurt.
...

After all the rain,
all of the clouds
and all of the stress,
there are days like today
...

senioritis~
the ultimate excuse,
oh yes indeed.
here i sit, my studyhall
...

I do it because it is what my heart tells me,
because unlike many,
I fear no whim of my lovely epicenter.
This is what I do,
...

I don't wanna say goodbye
to everything i never had.
i don't wanna say hello
to that great big place below.
...

Oh the ballad of us star crossed two,
we sing we dance we parade
as we so often actually do,
our songs are quiet
...

If i were to die, let me die freely and of my own accord.
If i am to live, let me live unconditionally and for as long as i choose.
If i am to fear, let me pick the fears i wish to overcome the most.
If i am to be weak, give me the strength to compensate, and the drive to become greater.
...

i see the sun.
i see the moon.
i see the earth.
i see war.
