The Last Soldier

Samantha Evans

1 min read

Families from all around the block

All there to see me off

Two years have since past

Strangers they are now

But those same strangers

Faces now plastered with smiles

Gathering once again

They sweep me up in hugs

Tell me I look no different

Jokes across the room

Songs sang off key

Everyone’s happy

Except me

I hurry away when they turn their backs

Careful not to spoil there fun

I run to the gravey...

Dear

Whisper, whisper in my ear, dear

And don’t you ever worry girl

For you I’d fight the whole world

Sing, sing for all to hear, dear

Let your voice ring out loud

As everyone joins the crowd

Speak, speak without fear, dear

Don’t you ever apologize

When you say something wise

Cry, cry let out tears, dear

And when you wipe them away

Still remember the dark days

Scream, scream for your lost years, de...

Even The Slow Moves Too Fast

Samantha Evans

Even the slow moves to fast

The future fades into the past

At record speed

And all I need

Is for things to slow

But I know

That’s never going to happen...

The Grass Is Red (extended version)

Samantha Evans

1 min read

The sky is blue

The grass is red

He didn’t tie his shoe

So he broke his head

It stained the grass

And alas

Now the grass is red

If only someone had seen

That his laces were untied

The grass might still be green

And the boy might not have died...

Today’s The Day

Samantha Evans

Today’s the day

It’s finally here

She’s on her way

I get to see her

I can hardly believe

Recalling her

In anticipation

Blond hair

Blue eyes

I think so anyway

Today’s the day

I’ll finally see her face

Instead of just

Hearing her voice

On the phone

Reading the book aloud

Alternating paragraphs

Like in a classroom

But unlike that

It’s actually enjoyable

Because it’s me

And her

And K

But today

Is...

All The Things I’m Meant To Do

Samantha Evans

1 min read

I obsess over one thing

And ignore the other

I lay on my couch

Nodding at my mother

Tells me do my work

So I tell her I will

And proceed to not do it

Know I should, but still

How come it’s so hard sometimes

To do the things that actually matter

While I easily spend my hours

Filling pages with endless chatter

Cause I look up something

And now I’m an expert

In an unrelated topic

And I swear that I...

Smile

Smile

There’s so much fun to had

Look around at everyone

The room is full

I’ll never be alone

Always surrounded by friends

But wait

What’s that

A whisper in an ear

I cannot hear

I ask but they all say

Nothing was said

Am I going crazy?

But no

I swear it’s real

They must be talking

About me

What’s that

A subtle glance

I ask but they all say

Nothing was exchanged

Am I going crazy?

But no

I swear I s...

Now I’m Awake

Now I’m awake

For the first time

I see you for

What that you are

Just a misstep

On my journey

To find someone

Who just might care

About me more

Than people like

You...

My City On Fire

Samantha Evans

1 min read

My city on fire

I watch as it burns

I turn my lantern off

It’s no longer of use

The dancing flames

Give me all the light I need

My city on fire

I watch as it burns

I turn my tv off

It’s no longer needed

The flickering flames

Entertain me plenty

My city on fire

I watch as it burns

I turn my mind off

And lean back in my chair

The hungry flames

Push past my door

My city on fire

I watch as it burns...

Who Are You Again?

Samantha Evans

1 min read

She catches my eye

Looks vaguely familiar

Reminds me of home

Guess she thought the same

Cause she stops

“Sam?”

Her voice makes me pause

Sounds like someone I know

Plus, that’s my name

So I stop

“Yeah?”

Her face lights up

I know that smile

But I can’t quite place it

So I ask

“Who are you again?”...
