Ronny Self Poems

Hello Day, I see you’ve come again
You’ve proven yourself such a worthless friend
Now I wonder why you keep coming around,
Though you speak, you never seem to make a sound
...

The days do not last long of a man,
So now let us go,
Both you and I, hand in hand,
Journey away to a distant land
...

Where are you?
I’ve been waiting for such a long time
But you still aren’t here.
I cannot wait forever, you know?
...

Moving soul I want to see;
There are just so many things I want to say;
Moving soul as you come close to me;
Perhaps I’ll tell them to you another day.
...

I was affronted by the darkest night
As it drowned out the heat of day
And became confused as I lost my sight
And stumbled around in unholy fright
...

Sunlight,
Crawling over the horizon,
Painted fingers grasping trees,
Pull yourself over, breathe
...

What dark days this side of life,
Of crooked friends and budding sorrow
Oh, the hopes of just making it ‘til tomorrow
Could not hide the heart from the scythe
...

The aging trees will creak and groan
To find themselves ringed by frost in sleep
And snow by the wind already blown
Cast upon snow already deep.
...

When was it that winter gales
Blew down trees around our home?
And where was I—A roam
Among the budding Spring vales,
...
