Tristian Ford Poems

Thoughts
are like little droplets of water.
A single drop
doesn't make a huge difference,
...

Strong on its own
Strong when it's gone
Strong if it stays
Strong when this is how it outplays
...

A Ballad of a Star Seed is wakeful
Being away from its home is a tragedy
It's faced many defeats in this life
Seldom is it sweet
...

Alone
Not lonely alone, wanting someone to join Alone.

Alone
...

I've read about a thousand stories
about
Tragedy and Triumph
But never thought of how soon I'd become one.
...

You don't have to wait for death to
Rest in peace.

Peace is such a wonderful state of mind to be in.
...

To my Shangri-La straightaway through this
trail

A place my mother once showed me.
...

The words one feels the need to write
are drowned out
by what he thinks he must learn
Still, he doesn't hold his breath
...

The world, more than anything else, suffers from a lack of love.

The social conditions that scourge our neighborhoods and towns:
Homelessness, poverty, along with all other types of crimes amid violence as we all live
...

Back in the days when I was young,
I wanted to be grown.
Once I got grown,
I wanted back to those days when I was a kid.
...
