Andrew Rose Poems

What do I miss?
I miss being in love,
That touchable happiness like no other
Is a slowly faded image of emotions now,
...

Time it ticks it fades away,
Luscious youth is left to pay,
The price of fate it can’t deny,
All is wrong but so was I-
...

She is the image in my head that blocks out all others,
And takes me from the reality of sound
To a place where sound no longer occurs,
A world outside of a world.
...

Many voices all at speech,
As I focus in on only one at this time,
Then I jump to another:
Broken-
...

They creep up on me when vulnerable at night,
When light is dark through loss of sight,
My self becomes tired and cannot resist,
Anxious thoughts occur and persist.
...

Feathery bird so plump so fair,
Soaring across me, no time to care,
Feathery plump, scooting around,
Hovering, fighting for crumbs on the ground.
...

You’re the most precious person in my life,
I still get this beautiful image of you
Whenever I close my eyes.
And it’s followed by a feeling,
...

The body of the youth is past,
Is laid to rest,
On the youthful breast
Of those who live in this time now,
...

Oh how it pains when it rains,
Washing away past with gloom,
This makes the trees look the same,
All dripping they loom,
...

I’m running through a corridor full of doors,
I keep hoping for that last door to open,
And to see a different image,
But it seems I am stuck with an eternity of doors…
...
