Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Obtain that needed peace,
In the quietness that silence brings.

Know that moments in silence kept,
...

Open up the window,
To realize how high the sky.
Open up that window,
To see what before you passes by.
...

I am not the same,
To pretend changes I have made...
Have not been excruciating.
Or exhausting to attempt,
...

I've got you.
You've got me.
And we've got...
Dreams.
...

A tolerance that comes to sit with patience,
For those awakening to realize...
Their lives lived had been mostly disguised,
By a fantasized reality...
...

You drive me crazy.
And I must,
Like...
The craze.
...

If my point of view offends you...
Where on Earth do you think,
In my head it was stirred and nourished from?
Neptune?
...

Regardless who disputes,
Who sits in postions...
To be voted and picked as leaders,
In these 'United States Of America'.
...

Criticized!
Are the ones,
Getting things done.
To be despised,
...

People at the bustop.
('people at the bustop? ')
Don't have time to talk a lot.
('people at the bustop? ')
...
