Young Poet Poems

How fruitless I have toiled these sullen hours.
The only art I know is servitude-
To Labor, and in exchange of my time
Procure what we possess: this morning bread,
...

Oh how many more of those stars above
Shall I witness expiring like our love:
Coffee cups, your left slipper, notes and comb,
These restless visions of your summer tomb.
...

The days slipped by; the months morphed into years.
And between two continents-missing you
And moving on, the untamed ocean bears
Your memory. There's nothing I can do
...

We were breathless
as one scent, a union
in the fiery darkness
where our souls feast.
...

The Best Poem Of Young Poet

Day Off

How fruitless I have toiled these sullen hours.
The only art I know is servitude-
To Labor, and in exchange of my time
Procure what we possess: this morning bread,
Your second skin, this leather-covered seat,
This tin roof beneath the battering rain:
And all the mute and deaf and blind witnesses
Of this naked moment I share with you
Before this random peter-patter ends
And the avenging sun takes it away-
Away from the poetry of your love,
Back to the bosom of my poverty.
