    Is there ever an ending?

    I walk down the street
    Black street
    Gold light
    She walks before me on the side walk
    Her tags jingle-jangle
    It’s too damn soon for Christmas. . .

    Walking with no shoes on
    Bare feet and no bra in the dark
    Not cause I care
    It’s cause I just don’t
    Not cause I’m angsty
    It’s just cause I just want to think…

    Why is it we can’t be in the now?
    No day but today and only for a little while they say
    But if we live for today
    we can’t see what’s coming from so far away
    Maybe it’s better that way. . .

    I want to go camping with Rachel
    And maybe some other people I’m not really sure
    I’m not even sure what I’m wanting it for
    If I escape maybe my head won’t be as sore
    Maybe I’ll find what my life has in store. . .

    Will everything be fine if I let it be?
    Is he alright?
    I hope she stopped cutting – did she ever stop?
    Will things get better?
    Am I there for him enough?
    Am I there too much?
    Am I prying?
    Will I quit building molehills?
    Will I quite finding reasons to write shitty poems?
    What will happen?
    Can I ever let it be?
    What will happen?
    Turn the page,
    Next chapter,
    Next book,
    Now for the sequel,
    What happens next?

    It’s too damn soon for Christmas. . .
    Her tags jingle-jangle
    She walks before me on the side walk
    Gold light
    Black street
    I walk down the street

    There is never an ending. . .

    You start off with promise and then get into bed with rhyme. It's seldom a good lover.

    No, that is a good poem. Don't listen to that dude above. You wrote clearly what you were thinking and feeling, and that is what good poetry is. Keep it up
