Jared Ashby Poems

A man seeks revenge,
A widow cries,
A death to avenge,
A lawyer that lies,
...

Let me tell you about a sad day,
one that doesn't happen any other way,

'Hello my friend' I say once more,
...

Theres a rhyme flowing through my head,
song of you and me in another time,
a place where I can't get back to my own bed,
a perfect sign of when you where mine,
...

I have dreamed a dream,
of your beautiful face,
lying next to the stream,
where I chose my soul's mate,
...

I might get hit by a bus,
but even then I will not fuss,
for if I where to die in vain,
I know it's only momentary pain,
...

Time is ticking,
hope is flickering,
my pulse is racing,
mind is tracing,
...

staring at your reflection in the coffee,
just for a while,
nudging your foot yes it's me,
I like that.. your smile,
...

How many years has it been?
so many since I last saw your face,
a feeling like this should be a sin,
my heart beating at a steady pace,
...

They say to get into his good grace,
it's only your past sins you must face,
But the word of man is just so fickle,
like wishing in a fountain with a nickel,
...
