Sometimes It Happens - Poem by Brian Patten

And sometimes it happens that you are friends and then
You are not friends,
And friendship has passed.
And whole days are lost and among them
A fountain empties itself.

And sometimes it happens that you are loved and then
You are not loved,
And love is past.
And whole days are lost and among them
A fountain empties itself into the grass.

And sometimes you want to speak to her and then
You do not want to speak,
Then the opportunity has passed.
Your dreams flare up, they suddenly vanish.

And also it happens that there is nowhere to go and then
There is somewhere to go,
Then you have bypassed.
And the years flare up and are gone,
Quicker than a minute.

So you have nothing.
You wonder if these things matter and then
As soon you begin to wonder if these things matter
They cease to matter,
And caring is past.
And a fountain empties itself into the grass.

    An old favourite, this gently regretful poem. Rings more true with the passing years. Beautiful. (Report) Reply

Sometimes Poems

  1. Sometimes With One I Love

    SOMETIMES with one I love, I fill myself with rage, for fear I effuse unreturn'd love; But now I think there is no unreturn'd love--the pay is certain, one way or another; (I loved a certain person ardently, and my love was not return'd; Yet out of that, I have written these songs.)

  2. Sometimes The Sky's Too Bright

    Sometimes the sky's too bright, Or has too many clouds or birds, And far away's too sharp a sun To nourish thinking of him. Why is my hand too blunt To cut in front of me My horrid images for me, Of over-fruitful smiles, The weightless touching of the lip I wish to know I cannot lift, but can, The creature with the angel's face Who tells me hurt, And sees my body go Down into misery? No stopping. Put the smile Where tears have come to dry. The angel's hurt is left; His telling burns. Sometimes a woman's heart has salt, Or too much blood; I tear her breast, And see the blood is mine, Flowing from her, but mine, And then I think Perhaps the sky's too bright; And watch my hand, But do not follow it, And feel the pain it gives, But do not ache.

  3. Sometimes

    Sometimes I feel alive sometimes I feel dead sometimes my heart hurts sometimes it's all in my head Sometimes I feel lonely sometimes I need my space sometimes there are no problems sometimes I've got too much to face Sometimes things go right sometimes things go wrong sometimes I fit right in sometimes I just don't belong Sometimes I want to laugh sometimes I want to cry sometimes I want to live sometimes I want to die Sometimes I want to face life sometimes I want to be gone from sight sometimes I want to run sometimes I want to fight Sometimes I want to sing sometimes I want to shout sometimes I know the asnwer sometimes I'm in doubt Sometimes I'm happy sometimes I'm sad sometimes I'm scared sometimes I'm mad Sometimes I want to win sometimes I want to lose sometimes I listen to music sometimes I watch the news Sometimes I make decisions sometimes I'm told what to do sometimes I find life hard sometimes so do you.....

  4. A Poem By Tupac- 'sometimes I Cry'

    Sometimes i cry, because i am on my own The tears I cry R bitter and warm they flow with life but take no form I cry because my heart is torn, and i find it difficult 2 carry on I had an ear 2 confide in, I would cry among my treasured friends but who do you know that stops that long to help another carry on the world moves fast and it would rather pass you by than 2 stop and C what makes you cry It's painful and sad sometimes i cry and no one cares about why
