Expressionist

Poems are things you write when you feel things too big to say, and things too big to feel. Everything here is my own work, picked up from flashes and memories and small remarks that stayed with me. I hope you find something that stays with you

Waiting

I have been tapping my finger
Wiggling my toes

I’ve counted the dirt specks on the hose

My eyes are drooping, and I’m tired
None of this seem desired

I’ve drank 3 gallons of the sweetest juice
And the cap wasn’t loose

I’ve baked a cookie, and a cake
All the pastries I could possibly make

I’m growing older and older, it feels so
Wrinkles are climbing up from my toes

My eye is twitching so fast
Keeping it open is a burdening task

I’ve been surfing on the web
And now I’m bouncing on my bed

The hours are passing, oh so slow
I feel time has frozen in the ice and snow

Do I really need to wait this long
To hear the end of my sister’s song?
