NaPoWriMo Day 9

-Lately-

Lately, no one seems to be speaking
At least not loud enough for me to hear
Lately, no one seems to approach me
Well, not close enough to seem to near
Lately, it seems I'm falling
Down, down the rabbit hole
Lately, it seems I'm fading out
A printer with no ink left on the roll
Lately, all my surroundings irritate me
Everyone suddenly showing their worst mannerisms
Lately, all my writing seems to lack
Complaints set to elegant rhythms

NaPoWriMo Day 8

-Disappointment-

I had an entire poem
All ready to type up
Sitting in my tattered notebook-
On a sheet of scratch paper

I had this poem
All ready to go
To send off-
But I've realized, I hate it

I had a poem
About a small event
That occurred at the beginning of my day-
Now almost forgotten

I had that poem
Almost good enough
To send-
But I wrote this instead

NaPoWriMo Day 7

-Cranky-

I don't wanna
Do my homework
I don't wanna
Get up in the morning
I don't wanna
Talk
I don't wanna
Be awake
I don't want
To write this poem
I don't wanna
Do anything, but sleep

NaPoWriMo Day 6

-Timeless-
No time to run
No time to sleep
No time to eat
No time to read
No time to write
No time to drive
No time to sing
No time to work
No time to well wish
No time to watch
No time to procrastinate
And yet I do

NaPoWriMo Day 5

-The SUNday-
I go to the gym
The Mall
Out to eat
Then I come home and sit in the sun
What a day
On a Sunday

NaPoWriMo Day 4

-Knitting-

Knit one
Pearl one
40 stitch's long
Over and over-
Better with every movement
Until it becomes instinctual
Like breathing
Its a release; something to numb the stress of life

NaPoWriMo Day 3

-Something More-

Someday I will write
Something more impressive than
This very short haiku
