Every once in awhile around 11:30pm when I'm trying to fall asleep, inspiration comes to write a poem and I can't get it out of my head. I try to and think, oh, I'll remember it in the morning and can just add to it then. Never works. Trots through my head and won't leave till I drag out of bed and go write it on paper.
So, here's the last one. A bit melancholy but they usually are.
Yesterday
It seems like just yesterday
that I walked the halls
of an old forgotten school.
It seems like just yesterday
that I walked the campus green
and tried to find my path in life.
It seems like just yesterday
I embarked upon my future
and lived a different life.
It seems like just yesterday
I left the bad for better
and made my dreams come true.
It seems like just yesterday
I met my one true love
and took his hand for life.
It seems like just yesterday
until I count the years
and sadly realize just how many
have really passed on by.
