Akua Achampong Poems

Here sits a boy so in love with this girl,
But he won't say a word cause it sets him in a whirl.
And it won't stop spinning untill he can find
some rest, reassurance or peace of mind,
...

Bit to drink but not drunk,
Not in love with life...but think i am with you.
Don't know what love is, hasn't sunk
In deep enough for me to fall through
...

I walked a mile in your boots,
But they weren't for me.
They blistered my feet and made them bleed.
...

Ten- Time is ticking way too fast
Nine- Nothings ever meant to last
Eight- Everything you knew this year
Seven- soon enough will disappear
...

I love the way you make me smile without needing to try,
i love the way you make a horrible day float happily by.
But i can't notice or seem to care when you look at me.
i might smile, frown, even snare or be beside myself with glee.
...

I'm trapped and i can't move...
These four walls of my little box are too hard to break through.
I can't do it anymore;
My walls are moving in and my hearts too sore.
...

Hook your foot in and begin to climb,
Sercure your footing, you don't have time.

Keep climbing and try not to fall...
...

Plant my seed and plant it deep,
Push it through the dirt.
ill germinate and fix my roots
Deep within the earth.
...

I stop at the station,
I stand,
I wait.
But time keeps ticking and its getting late.
...

Feelings can change as seasons do
Sometimes hot or cold.
Each different and new.
But will I feel the same about you in a few months
...
