Jim Farr

The truth is; that
i don't know if I could stand
to live a day without you
and I don't know what I would do
...

I find Nature dull, and emotionless
while some write poems about the colors of a flower
I find such work mundane
although a rose may be bright
...

You know I never tried to hide
the worst parts of my life
I was looking up to the sky
for some inspiration to find
...

It’s like walking over glass
all our time slipped past
life flies way to fast
so I’m still living in the past
...

Is God looking down
From the sky each night
Making sure the world works right
Is it within his majesty
...

Behind my fear
and isolation
I’m confident
confident
...

America is Gone
slipped into the sea before dawn
she left the world today
seems like it isn’t the same
...

My whole life I’ve been trying to rewind
Back to another place and time
A place like home where I feel alive
...

I don’t remember why
I’m standing here tonight
don’t have words to say
to keep you here another day
...

I need medication
to stop this frustration
its never ending
waiting for this new beginning
...

This may be my Great Awakening
The beginning, of something never-ending
The renaissance of my soul
A chance to live
...

Dearest Jill…
When I write about you
The words never come out
What words could I write
...

how I wish that I could skip
the days, months and years
that separate you from me
it is said; that a life spent waiting
...

The score stands
At one to zero
We don’t need a hero
But it doesn’t help
...

Stand with me on this ledge
Crawling closer to the edge
Push me down
Watch me fall
...

a friend is gone today
a voice no more to hear
whose life, cut short
ran closely to our own
...

when you lay down at night
surrender yourself to the moonlight
is it me you dream of
in the still air of night
...

a summer breeze
cool and dry it rolls by
relief from summer skies
...

the night air is cold
your muscles ache
mouth is dry
stomach turning
...

I think I need a coffee break
just to get away from this day
I woke up to early
fell asleep far to late
...
