if/then
if you need someone to tell you
the sky’s not gonna’ fall;
if you need someone to sell you
on dreams you couldn’t draw;
if the hope that lies within you
is waiting for the thaw,
take my hand and trust me -
- I’ll show you what I saw.

This is excellent.
Haven't read anything of yours in ages
which is a great shame.
But it think it's because you moved.
You stopped coming up in my automatic reader.
I shall come to read more often. -
Thanks for stopping by and reading! That the praise is coming from an esteemed fellow poet/blogger really means a lot.
This site has really only been here (in this form) for a few days now. It's a conglomeration of my more creatively-focused writing from a couple different sites, including the wordpress.com version of this site and my four-year-old blog with the name nobody seems to get.
I'm hoping to keep this one focused on my more whimsical and melancholy sides. -
I love this! A LOT! Very unexpected ending, based on the tone of the rest of the poem. And you know I am all about the killer ending!
Very nice work!
