I’m sitting here wishing you were near
Sliding ever closer dying for your embrace
To feel your warmth through our touch
Stilling my racing heart with your smile
I long to hold you forever
My angel without wings… Continue reading
The nights here start to meld together
Only consistency is the lonely hours
My arms are empty, heart aches
Air is pressed out of my existence
You my distant beauty, give me hope
Chance to fill my arms
Showing you my heart is a dream
Dream of hope and peace
Breathing again never felt so… Continue reading
Turmoil, pain
A whirlwind of emotions
How could I feel like this
Lost, hurt, not knowing what to do
It is the memory of her
Still burns my soul that memory
Thrown away was I for someone else
Someone who wasn’t what she dreamed
Threw away her… Continue reading
Walking down the hallway
Out of the corner of my eye
The ghost of you doth walk
Deep in the corners of my mind
Passing through my daily grind
The ghost of you doth walk
Forgetting will not happen
Memories forever burned
The ghost of you doth… Continue reading
Tonight the moon is my only friend
I lay here and stare at her face
To dream of what I’ve never seen
Gazing at the nightly glow
I imagine one who stares at the moon’s light
Closer I feel to this nameless one
With the passing of each phase… Continue reading
Hope
Sing from the mountain top
Yell across the prairie
Proclaim to the strangers

The one from my dreams

Eyes laced with greater passion
Voice softer, filled with such strength
Countenance pure, with grace overflowing… Continue reading
Forever Dreaming
From the days of my youth
I’ve dreamt of I know not whom
Never knowing quite what to think
Desires of my heart and soul
Longing to find a home
Visions flood my days
To see and not know brings sorrow
Fear of… Continue reading
Distant Desire
I sit under here under the lamps glow
Late the hour is as my thoughts drift
To have watched you from afar
Seeing the spark in your eyes
Full of life, bubbling over spreading joy to others
Watching your grace as you revel in service… Continue reading
Can You See How Much I Care?
I saw her under the street
Light waiting for her man
Overwhelmed with certain joy
Voluminous heart beating, counting the
Ever passing seconds
Young though she was
Overcome was she to see him
Under the night sky
This poem is in the acrostic style. I’ve been
What I Wouldn’t Do
The nights are long when you’re not here
Lack of your presence darkens my way
Without you life feels so drear
One glimpse of your smile brightens my day
Visage of your face melts away the snow
Hearing your song is the zenith… Continue reading
