Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Why do I feel,
This is too real to dismiss?
Why am I choosing to peel away from it...
When I know deep inside,
...

You are just not worthy,
Of my love and loyalty.
You dismiss my attempts,
To be totally devoted...
...

There are those who view talents and gifts,
Others may be blessed with...
As a means for them to seek attachment,
To a dollar sign.
...

It's not my favorite...
But it's hot!
This flavor tasted that I've got!
It satisfies a need that's fed...
...

He is in a position to do 'something'.
And when he does...
That one something that is done,
Is found not to be appropriate.
...

The dictation,
Clear and precise.
The lyric is felt...pulsating!
With a feeling no one can duplicate.
...

Incredible...
Yes,
Put that down.
Legendary?
...

Reflect the right to be who you are...
With a declaration of independence,
Defended under the eyes of God!
Achieve your greatness.
...

Don't wait to die...
To be acknowledge and glorified,
For time you spent
Bounced back and forth
...

Take me with you to soar in flight.
Above and beyond distractions that fright.
Be this time done at night or broad daylight,
I would like to be a passenger...
...
