Jeremy Willson Poems

I'm tired of asking for love ya know
Love is suppose to be like two flowers that grow
They grow together and not apart
Because to them their life is nothing more than art
...

Whenever I'd get nervous
So nervous I'd be freezing cold
I slipped inside my sweater
Where it's nice and warm
...

I have plenty of questions
That slowly eat away at me
Like a plague in the water
And all you are is the rain
...

People are always so concerned about the distance
But it's only as far or as near as you make the expanse
That they are worried about, but what they don't realize
Is that distance is not measurable and I'm not wise
...

We're just a couple of rejects and outcasts
Haunted by the ghosts of our pasts
We never knew that life would be so systematic
"Don't color outside the box", well imagination is what they lack
...

Can I grow wings like new
And jump off this picturesque view
A bridge so wonderfully high and sturdy
Like a nest in a tree and I'm the Birdy
...

You can listen to my heart
Stare into my dark brown eyes
And betray a kiss on these lips
...

The gloomy boy fell asleep under the old oak tree
He laid there with his cigarette between his lips, he felt free
But only in his dreams never in his dreary reality
He pushed away all the people who spoke to him playfully
...

A riddle that stumps the greatest of minds
You don't find it, but you is what it finds
It makes you happy and it makes you sad
Cause it can be something good or something bad
...

There once was a rose
A hard life in the gutter it choose
It was tough with a thick stem
A crystal in the mud like a rare gem
...
