 Finding The Flood - Poems by Jeremy Joel

LONG AFTER SUMMER


Seasons go
Problems arise
Restless nights
Taken in stride
My soul stretches out
Bounces back for comfort
I'll find all the answers
But long after summer
Fist ‘round your heart
Knees hit the ground
Scream in your mind
As to not make a sound
When mercury falls
You'll find some relief
The warmness of Winter
Takes away all the grief


How long will it take
For women to choose?
Fulfilling prophecies
By breaking the rules
December's to forgive
To ignite a spark
Caution to the wind
To get where you aren't
Reconciliation
Sentimental gifts
Spread out the puzzle
To make it all fit
I'm working overtime
Pen lying limp
Sitting by the fire
With the letters I've ripped


Long after summer
What could it bring?
Holidays alone
Or the slip of a ring?
I want answers
Short and direct
No mumbo-jumbo
I'm unable to get
Something like love
Or death's enlightenment
Anything's a try
Even just for a minute
Restructure the versus
For one final rhyme
Perfecting the ending
So the story's on time
