The days can be long, life is beautiful, life can be a battle,
Go to work and give all you have to the corporate plan.
The world is so fast now, keep up with the pace,
Fight it if you choose, get left in the dust.
Eyes can get blinded by events of the day,
Deafness to the ears when so much noise is heard.
Like a scary movie or a happy ending may be shown,
The way of the world is to fight and scramble till sleep
And tired takes you away.
I feel so tired and worn out on some days,
When the sun goes down and a shower feels so clean,
A hot dinner made, the lights go out and a pillow beneath my head.

So beautiful Keith. Just another common experience of one more day of life but you have rendered it so well 🙂
I really like it! Reminds me of this music video – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v27TRan1SBI
No prob. I don’t know how many halloween-themed poems you have written, but if you have more than you plan on posting in October, I’d love to read them. Feel free to email them to me if you do have more than you are going to blog, but let me know on wordpress if/when you have, otherwise I might not realize it on my own until months later lol
[ Smiles ] This is also a nice one!
“…and tired takes you away…” excellent
Reblogged this on keithgarrettpoetry.
Forget if it’s a night or day, you are still lucky to have a pillow beneath.
like it
Thanks again
