Rose Stern Poems

There comes a time when,
You finally see,
How still,
The world is,
...

I'm tired,
I'm just tired,
That's what I say when people ask
What's wrong,
...

I know it means nothing,
To you,
But it still means everything,
To me.
...

People say I'm too loud,
A troublemaker,
Others say I'm too quiet,
To speak up more.
...

Stargazing,
Watching the Aussie night sky,
All the constellations,
All the patterns,
...

A small town,
With quite boring people,
A little girl,
Sits just under,
...

Normally, I'd write this down,
In that little book of mine,
That held all my thoughts and memories,
Every feeling, and everything that happened in my mind.
...

What happened to us?
We used to be good friends,
You admitted it yourself,
I never wanted that to end,
...
