"Original Aidan" Poems

Untitled
You see me smile,
you think everything is fine.
You don't know
what goes on in my mind.
I do a good job pretending
who you want me to be.
But, one reason I am lost
is that it's not whom I am meant to be.

 Late
Snooze Alarm
'nother five minutes.
Getting ready,
running around.
Leave a minute late
stuck behind bus
2 minutes
oh no, another light
4 minutes
Traffic all around
30 minutes late
to work
today.

Dreaming of Change
Dreaming of Change
easy to do
Creating change
harder to do.
Stirring change
gets you where you want

Johnny got home from camp
He enjoyed it a lot
"Mommy, look what I made"
A few years later
Johnny has a family now too
He can not afford
what his mommy once could
