Phil Panebianco Poems

Realizing what could have been
Each decision questioned
Giving up on your goals
Realizing what should have been
...

Why am I always one step behind?
Always a day late?
Why is life always so unkind?
Will this seal my fate?
...

Alone with my thoughts,
yet I don't know what to think.
I haven't thought about reality, only fantasy.
My world, my government!
...

What is this feeling that has overcome my body?
This feeling, that is destroying my mind.
I can feel it taking over my actions, my movements.
The world is moving in slow turns.
...

Why can't you just let me be?
Let me make my own decisions, my own choices.
Even my own mistakes.
When will you stop worrying?
...

The rain has gone away,
the moon glimmers through the clouds.
The dark of night has taken over our world, our minds and our souls.
Thoughts of evil run through peoples bodies, like a virus.
...

Don't worry, because I will be back.
With a vengence in my mind.
A new wisdom in my words.
I will continue to preach my views, continue to put fear into the people who are afraid to accept reality as it really is.
...

Have I failed at being a son?
A husband?
A father?
Have I failed at becoming number one?
...

Insecurities risen to the surface,
not enough answers to suffice.
Insecurities and true colors have come to light,
too many words have caused a fight.
...

You're so phony and fake
can't take your bullsh**
doing my best to swallow the tall tales you tell.
I can see right through you
...
