Jesse Tampa Poems

It begins with laughter
and it ends with tears
That's how it's been
the past few years
...

Here I am inside this building; I’ve been here a million times before
When I walk in they know exactly who I am, upon closing of the door
I know the seats, I know the doors
I know the counters, I know more
...

I wonder what other people dream about when they fall asleep
I would have no idea, because in their heads is where they keep
Their dreams, their goals, or hearts or souls
What keeps them alive and feeling whole
...

Roses will bleed
Violets will cry
When you broke my heart
I wanted to die
...

Alone I sit here, scenic beauty
I feel special, in the moody
Empty desks around me, the smell of something new
Wishing it surrounds me, in hopes of empty too
...

She loves another
My heart takes cover
Fearful I am
Of holding her hand
...

As the moon vanishes and the night is taken away
I find the sun coming up giving birth to a new day

A brand new beginning to a fresh set time frame
...

I used to see you in commercials
I thought you weren't real
Now I see you before me
Your beauty I can plainly see
...

I can't stop thinking about you.
Love, I can't stop sleeping without you.

Love I cannot see breathing without you.
...

Here I sit at the cornerstone of Writer’s Cube
My brain drained out by a suction tube
I have lost my ability to think straight
Gone is my power to articulate
...
