This Pen Won'T Work Poem by nikki irvine

i am the light shining bright,

in the dark and outta sight,

that fickers through the night.

the time to play is the best way...........

but this damn pen wont work! ! ! !


i am trying to write,

but im grading down to a pencil that is in my reach,

so i can carry on with this speech.

this pencil is blunt,

so im a bit stuck,

in this memory and time.

why wont this damn pen work? ? ? ?


Time clocks in and it clocks out once again,

how does this time run away with me so easily? ? ?

how i am i going to remember this one, this time? ? ?

fireflys in the night,

and butterflies in the day,

that dance away,

back in the day it was my way or the highway! !

24/7 is me, its what i do,

as my fingers intertwine in this time line,

and the time carries on without me realising,

the seconds flyby and i dont know where they go,

time ticks on and on

it leaves me behind in that dark room,

trying to write,

by candle light,

but......................

i wish this damn pen would write! ! ! ! !
