Elijah Brown

If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

68 poems·Since November 2014

The passing of knowledge and wisdom is keen to our future, so why not make acquiring this knowledge a bit more interesting. I share what comes to mind although it may not make sense all of the time, all in hopes you learn from me. Maybe you'll understand something I couldn't see. So please enjoy what I write and maybe, just maybe, you'll learn something new that could broaden even your world view.

Negative Vibes

November 12, 2014

Why must you be so negative, the guile of your

words serving as a sedative,

it’s repetitive, with everything that you say, dwindling

 and choking the joy in a

different way, you wonder why

patience disappears and mercy has yet to meet your

ears, look back at yourself, in a dry

place, realize that you’re

alone, empty space.
