joy olree Poems

Sad eyes, tragedy of stillness,
Trophy on the walk way,
A tribute to the vanity of men,
Unhealthy lifestyles,
...

Treasured days ago
measured up in hurt.
Mess of lies, loves flies,
never alright forever.
...

Failed the test graduated anyway.
Got the job, got the guy
saved for a rainy day.
Bought the boots and the umbrella
...

Old lady barely alive,
everything she owns
on 4 wheels.
Stainless steel
...

I saw a child yesterday sitting on a corner, tears
streaming down its face, and I stopped to ask
why and the child replied, “no one likes me,
they laugh at me and say I lie, but I don’t lie.”
...

Someone Like Me

Sinner I am, sinner I’d stay,
sinner I’d die, and to Hell
...

The Creature Me

A creature of night I prowl,
obsessed
...

one day its cold, the next it's warm.
Rain falling like a box of cats
today.
...
