Lenore Lee Poems

'I went to a party mum,
I know what you'd say.
You'd say not to drink mum,
But I drank anyway.
...

I’m not like other children my age.
The children my age are precarious fools,
Whose actions are unjustified.
I don’t understand why they do as they do,
...

I cry and I don't know why,
I vent and stress,
I struggle in a mess,
I scream and feel frustrated,
...

I look around this joyful room,
Amongst the peaceful teens
This is perhaps the only class
Where students are not machines
...

Inside our house you'll find crannies and nooks.
Crevices and cracks and fissures and books!
Books under the bed and on the floor,
Books around the table and beside the door,
...

Do not conform to the ways
‘The ways' are but a way to capture your spirit,
To break your heart,
To kill your soul.
...

A land of peace is overrated.
The dream of it is seriously out-dated,
Because peace is truly non-existent
The dream of it is only ever lent
...

A teardropp falls from a lady's eye,
Misery seeps into her being,
She gives a deep, breathy, longing sigh,
And dreams about believing.
...

In the beginning everyone had:
Two heads,
Two hearts,
Two personalities
...

Man considered dumb,
Retardation sufferer.
Lost inside the world.
...
