Alone.........I sit
By the fishing hole
Didn't bring..don't need
...No fishing pole
Just want to catch
A breath of air
..And reconcile
Distraught..despair
..For in my slumber
Though wide awake
Passion's pride
Fueled my mistake
..And now..so alone am I
By the fishing hole
Didn't bring..don't need
...No fishing pole
Author's note:
.....Just the way life is.........sometimes.....
such a nice way of expressing your emotions. well done. nice flow in the poem.
There's just something about water that's comforting, relaxing, and mind-altering. What better place to contemplate life's choices and consequences? Nicely done, James. Linda :)
A lovely relaxing read James, made better by the pauses in the words, who needs a line, and who needs the fishes lol, 10 Lynda xx
I love the elipses throughout your journey here James! it gives the reader the feelings of the urgency to just catch his breath and assess the outcome of his decisions in life. Passions pride, leaves us nowhere to hide. Thank you for pointing me in this direction. We all need our space, this poem reminds me of an old expression If wishes were fishes We'd all be down the chip shop! Yeah! who needs a pole? Smiling at you Tai
Well conceived and nicely crafted in persuasive expressions with conviction. An insightful creation elegantly embellished with poetic rhyme and rhythm. Thanks for sharing, James.
I do enjoy how you write about life - you make it real. This was no exception, as it was written very well. Warmest regards, CJ Heck
