Scott Martin Poems

A poem I wrote to my wife 4 years ago to try and save our marriage after she fell out of love with me. I failed and am now divorced, but I thought I would share the poem anyway...

Although my words mean little,
This poem I wrote for you,

GRANDMA LOVED

Alice Martin Loved her life,
And enjoyed it everyday.

How can you believe,
In something you can not see?

when it determines your eternity.

My 16 Year Old Pea Pod

We had a little pea pod, the cutest of them all,
...

It's not easy one bit,
to live all alone.
No one to talk to,
unless on the phone.
...

As you grow older, and you have some time alone.
When no one's around, and you turn off the phone.
You can think about your childhood, and how it was back then.
You might even get some paper, and write it down in pen.
...

Friends can be many,
Friends can be few.
I have many,
But none like you.

The Seasons Come
The Seasons Go
Much Like The Life
Of Persephone
...

As we venture through our lives, and the years come and go,
It can be amazing at the ones you come to know.
Starting with your parents, and your next of kin,
The people in your neighborhood, and the ones you call friends.
...

I sit at home a cloudy day, thinking of these times
A virus spreads throughout the world, deaths continue to climb
I feel sorry for all involved, I think of family and friends
I begin to stare and wonder, will this ever end
