Jared Bradford Poems

Middle school is coming and going
It will soon come to end
All those memories
All those friends
...

We've been through the bad
We've been through the good
We've all been sad
We've done the best we could
...

He was sly through life
Cunning, tough
Always won his fights
...

Ties a rope around his neck
Pulls it tight up to a pole
He thought he could see
Between friend and foe
...

I can say so much
How I feel, what I do
But my feelings aren't the same
When I am without you
...

What is love?
Just a word?
Just a verb?
A no good nothin?
...

I write these lines down
With this pen in my hand
With this heart in my chest
Wanting to take a stand
...

Don't tell me I'm weak
Your words are bleak
Mine stretch further and beyond
Watch out now yours are gone
...

Ain't it funny?
How the world keeps spinnin'
Like it's in a damn race
But nobodys winnin'
...

You keep me humble in times of need
You patch my wounds so they don't bleed
You stitched my heart back together
When it was torn at the seam
...
