Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)

The trail went cold

I tried to lead you to me.
Wanting to get caught.
But the trail went cold long ago.
Not from lack of trying.
On either of our sides.
The heart was there to keep the fire burning.
But the trail went cold long ago.
I wrung my hands in anticipation.
In scrupulous planning
I laid out every step a million times for you to follow.
But the trail went cold long ago.
You did everything that was expected.
You took your time and checked each step.
With perfect measure you were led by me.
But the trail went cold long ago.
