Lisa John Poems

I don’t know why I bother
I don’t know why I try
I don’t know why I love you
So please tell me why
...

Youre forever drunk
I cant remember what you’re like when sober
Its April now dad you’ve been like this
Since October
...

When I sit under willow
I just can't help but think
Does this tree have feelings
Does it weep when I blink
...

I hates a myth a spirit
They say
But they havent met me
Who lives with him everyday
...

I cling to any warmness
I cling to any hope
As I hve to constantly carry around
This cold-heavy winter cloak
...

I got the phone call yesterday
It came as a real shock
As I was just doing my homework
Listening to that vexing tick tock
...

Is life worth living?
If youre not here to

Cos I question the fact that
...

Cupids arrows broken
So the love had flown away
It wasnt gonna last anyway
Well thats what you say
...

Sadness creeps up on you
Like the coldness in the night,
But when it gets too cold,
Happiness is out of sight!
...

Autumn leaves
Fall to the ground
Like baby horses
Prancing around
...
