Eruption

Free Verse Poem By Regan Shannon

Why do I, stand here
Waiting..for the, end of, it all
I lay here, bored now, not even trying
I say that, I have had, enough
But I'm just not, like that, lazy, and different
I have to, stop lose my, self, again
Just like, back then, I can't stop, a, gain....

Erupt! Say that you've had enough!
Don't stop, just because of them, staring down all your life.
Just, keep, on walking. I will stay beside you.
I, need, a hand to stay up now...
This volcano won't stop now.

I stand here, watching, everyone, snoring
Is this what, life is, supposed to, be
Kicked around, on ground, can't keep, from falling
We just, sit and com, plain a, bout it
Yet we don't, even trym to change it all, to, day...

Erupt! Say that you've had enough!
Don't cry about it, don't care about it
Just move on
From this place, I hate them all!
And I can't stand at all
This is, not what I want at all
This volcano won't stop now.
