Gary Diamond Poems

(This is actually lyrics to a song I wrote, but it's pretty poetic nonetheless)

I want to tell you
A little tale
...

As eyes hang heavy
As neighbours cat starts prowling
Dawn is here
Why am I not sleeping?
...

Above all else
The lessons I learned
Are probably not much more insightful
Than anyone else
...

my place or yours.
much the same to me.
lets roam indoors.
lets take the train that meets me.
...

empty pages, open words and a bottle of whatever you've got.
you've always been pretentious, aspire to something i'm not.
i'll be the one to break you.
to bring you to your knees.
...

i could scour the earth looking for the right words to tell you.
my words hold little wisdom, but hold weight.

i believe in trust and that it's an emotion.
...

i guess it's something you learn as you go along.
as most things are.
until you find your comfort zone.
or at least the nearest bar.
...

my poise and my position.
will give my game away.
turn the lights out before you go to bed.
...

i'm shaking like a leaf now.
and so would you.
had you been in my boots for the last three hours.
though for you 9 minutes is probably enough.
...

fallen idols.
many spring to mind.
but don't look to them for advice.
...
