Alone! Poem by Sulaiman Alimat Taiwo

Alone!

Rating: 3.0


Standing all alone
out here, on my own



I gasped for air before I'm old
and the days turn nights and cold

in every season it gets tough
so I know the road is rough

my pen and papers I fold
and the things I'll need when I'm old

I made my sadness a carefree grin
And laid in bed when it's green
