I Saw You Walking Yesterday – By Kelly D. Tolman

Posted by admin on April 8, 2009

I saw you walking yesterday.
Today you are in the newspaper.

Many times I wondered at your quietness,
And why you always sat so far off in the corner.
My frineds and I had lunch and talked,
While you usually ate apart,
Sometimes we discussed your quiet manner;
Your ways always seemed difficult to understand.

You and I were never really acquainted,
Although you were always just across the street.
And we met each morning and each afternoon,
I never thought we might actually talk,
Or say more than “Hello,” and “good-bye.”
Now I know that when I saw you walking yesterday,

I should have stopped and said something to help,
So that maybe you wouldn’t have killed yourself.

Saying Good-Bye

Posted by admin on February 11, 2009

“There is no death for the young,”
they say.
Lie
Did I say, “lie,”
I meant it.

“There is no death for the young.”
Who the hell ever said it should be …
What’s the point …
Its over anyway.

NO!!! I don’t know.  Can’t be.  So clean.
Gone now.
Its a good memory,
It feels good to recall
the virtues.

All I can say
now is I’m sorry.

Why say more, or try
to rerun what ended.
Some things cannot
change.

Good-bye.
