Standoffish

July 8, 2021July 9, 2021 ElRoyPoet

Jesus said:“Love your neighbor as yourself”. But how can He—expect me—to be friendly,with people I don’t even know. I have lots of blessings,and they don’t have that much.I’m afraid, they’ll try to take,what I’ve worked so hard to get. So … Continue reading Standoffish

I’m trying to remember,the life I had before.When I was young;When I had things I could do;‘places I could go;‘when I had a brighter future. I’m clinging to those momentos,I kept of yesteryears.I’m hoping I can hold on,‘just a little … Continue reading Hoarder

Ambition

June 11, 2021March 2, 2023 ElRoyPoet

I don’t do anything on my own.There’s a reason for my investment,in what I’m trying to get. Everything that attracts me,has a hook. I’m just a fish,Trying to get what I wantand hoping not to get hooked. For my heart … Continue reading Ambition

Like Father, Like Son

June 5, 2021June 8, 2021 ElRoyPoet

I am like my father,And my grandfather before him. I have a grown son—Who is already old enough. He is at the end of the line,For I have no grandson after him. After all is said, and all are gone;Only … Continue reading Like Father, Like Son

Rapture

May 21, 2021June 5, 2021 ElRoyPoet

It was just another sunny day,When I saw with my eyes—dismay. My God had built me a temple of joy,That my foes were intent to destroy. It began with strife and then became malice,Oh how the world maligned me—in cowardice. … Continue reading Rapture
