Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If there was anything I wish,
That I could reveal to anyone...
It would be to say one day to everyone,
Everything I have ever done has been uncovered!
...

You say you don't understand,
What it is I am trying to convey?
And you read again and again...
Still not comprehending?
...

When it's spoken and should be understood,
For what it is...
It ain't!
When I'm expected to listen,
...

They don't know what 'this' is!
'This'...here!
Because they have no idea who I am,
And 'how' I am connected to it!
...

I wish I was
Caught up in the shallowness
Of my own thought process.
That would make it much easier
...

This comes as no surprise,
Your goodbye hurts my eyes.
These tears I can not stop...
Each dropp blocks my farewell.
...

Everything but the truth is accepted.
And 'if' you are blessed,
Knowing what it is...
It is like finding a rare jewel.
...

Father...
The spreading of false sincerities,
Have many slipping faced down in BS!
Of course we are in the midst,
...

To know love.
To know love and enjoy!
To know love and enjoy a thankfulness,
That is grateful!
...
