JayJay Maybank Poems

Most important love,
Like it's the only thing you know at the end of the day all this.
Means nothing.
This is a page.

All my life I have been
On the out looking in
Never had a bright side
Afraid to show my dark side
...

Those of us in uniform
A family does it make
Part is our commitment
And the oath that we do take
...

She stares at her ceiling once again with a hundred thoughts
'Maybe he knows who I am, probably not'
She walks down the hall with her head down low, scared to meet his eyes
Even when she hears his voice she's swarmed with butterflies
...

You were my friend then: now almost stronger!
Our friendship appeared once very glorious;
What happened meantime, gives me great anger;
Our friendship no longer remains serious.
...

You know it's crazy, 'cause nights like this
Would start out with a little private party
You sneak me into your mom's house
I know I might spill my drink, but
...

Teird of living in the homeless house,
Sitting in this empty chair,
Breathing this lonely air,
Accompanied by these dreadful tears,
...

When years passed away,
With no one dear,
The eyes filled with tears,
And the heart with fear.....
...

I'll be lost inside my head
Bad thoughts 'til 4 a.m.
Then I'll try to sleep
And I can't tell anyone
...

The seasons come and go like thoughts of you
Like a wave returning to the sea into the blue
They change but in a cycle that I can't lose
Each is painful but delightful to live through
...
