After Thought Poem by Richard Noggin

After Thought



I live a life so stiff and straight
Always worried about what others might think
I put my desires aside
Keep my hope inside
Scared to act out my thoughts
I jail them
And hope that in a sentence of 25 to life
I don’t have them overturned
And realize that I never truly lived
That the better part of my soul
Was left to wither
Into a frail after thought
