Goldfish Lament

By Smeagol

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Back and forth Back and forth Up and down Up and down All day long Round and round Under the bridge Over the rocks Up and down Back and forth Stareing out into your world Wondering what wind is like Listening to the noise of your life Wondering what dreams are like Hovering next to the broken ship Watching you pass all day long Back and forth Back and forth Written February 8th, 2002 © on Feb 07 2002 08:41 PM PST   0 • 10
