Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If you are one who wishes to get,
Everything you see...
Expect debt.

Each day you live and breathe,
...

Do you 'still' not know what it is that you want?
Has time you limited prevented this to happen?
Do you wish what it was suddenly appeared in view?
Or have you since given up like so many you see do?
...

How could you,
Dare dare double dare...
Daring to go?
From here to leave,
...

If you want to try out new adventures,
And not be censored...
By those peeping through a wall.
If you want to try out new adventures,
...

I could if I want to.
I could...
If I wanted to choose.
I could if I want to.
...

We haven't been this close since,
Well...
Too much time spent and wasted,
To convince one another,
...

Why can't there always be a peace.
And why not..
Have it everywhere that we go.
And why not...
...

If you ate more protein,
To keep your body lean...
You'd move a lot faster.
And avoid a disaster.
...

Nothing more is it I adore,
With such a certainty would be...
Knowing my interests,
Is never placed at your backdoor...
...

I've got my shoes shine bright,
With a smile that shows...
Wherever I go,
My troubles aren't with me to follow.
...
