Jax Ann Newton Poems

Time, so valuable, it's wasted.
Life, so wonderful, it's taken for granted.
Love, so unconditional, yet we make conditions.
...

Always watching, but never criticizing.
I never need worry, for you are my guardian angel.
Unnoticed but always seen.
What happened to the innocence of youth
...

Far underneath, there is a blackness that burns.
It blazes as the tongues of fire lick upward, gasping for breath.
The flames rage on and on. Begging under the table like a dog, for more sustenance.
...

Whole things stay unbroken,
Holes don’t mend themselves,
If you leave them attended
Up on lofty shelves.
...

the day i died on the inside, the place most important and true.
was the day that i left you waiting, with false hope revived.
life is pain, that is what they all say, but who are they to say?
love is life, that is what we all know, but how can we know if we have not lived?
...

All around me disagree, they don't understand it's me who's in charge of me.
When they all see me down, all thy ever do is frown, not even try to help.

(But) Someday they'll see that I'm in charge of me
...

I'm lost, can't find my way.
Day-to-day I'm lost. Without a trace.
You'll never find me here.
...

Storms are crashing,
Waves are bashing my body against the rocks.

I wait for the end, when this darkness will end
...
