Alex P.. Poems

You watch an old man, bent
Grey face, white hair
A black look from dead eyes
- Life gets into them
...

Earth is burning
Still keeps on turning
Sky is falling
Sun is rising
...

People forget how to love
Children forget how to laugh
Priests forget how to pray
Farmers forget how to sow
...

It moves slowly
Leaves me lonely

The feeling’s gone
...

when He closed His eyes
sun did frown
a thousand skies
were crashing down
...
