the little things

a little poem

By WilliamNotShakesperePublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I'm writing this freehand

starting from scratch

hoping that you like it

words you might not catch

because on they flutter

caught in the wind

Forever I suffer

We have all sinned

I wish that you realized

Before the end had come

But with my luck

That's a long shot and then some

Because who notices the trees

As they walk amongst the forest

Who really smells the coffee

When someone you love pours it

I feel like we forget the little things

Trying to make room for the big

But in doing so we miss out

on ever having truly lived

I am an up and coming writer and i have been grinding my whole life to get my work to the masses. I have always had a story to tell and i mean to tell it whether in poetic form or not it must be told.
