what is poetry

poetry is 
playing with words
to make them say
what words 
can never say

Carpe Amorem

I don't want to sleep in no more

I want to see the dawn breaking over the hill

I want to steal every second of every day

I want to seize your love.

I don't want to live inside no more

I want to feel the rain upon my face

Want to jump in the puddles and let the wind howl

I want to seize your love

There's a quiet in the morning

A simple joy to those hours before the dawn

I want to break into song and wake the house

I want to seize your love

I'm tired of being asleep

While the sun shines on every blade of grass

Every falling leaf

Every invisible thing that comes to pass

I'm tired of being down

I'm tired of being tired

All this pondering and wondering and wishing and worry

Time flies when you're not having fun

Time flies when you're stuck in the past.

  

I want mix all my metaphors

I want to whisper when I should shout

I want to break all the rules

I want to seize your love

I want to conquer the day

I want to rule the night

I want to live my life like I'm really alive

I want to seize your love

I don't want to sleep in no more

I want to seize this life
I want to seize this day

I want to seize your love.
