Barbara Vanier Poems

My love is not close to me
My beloved is far away
Why is it always so
I sit and wonder, think and ponder
...

You ask me for an open mind
But there is a beast inside you see
You ask me for an open mind
You know not what lurks in me
...

You have become my heart
What man can live without the vessel which pumps his own blood
My body moans and aches to touch you
The very hairs on my arm reach up in hopes that you are there
...

I have become a madman
The madness of love has taken me
I am transported by love to spaces and time I could not attain
I am loved and my beloved is love
...

Where did she go that slave of mine
Doesn't she know her place
She has lost her position in my house
I have searched and found no trace
...

Do you fear what I fear?
Justice blind is what I fear
slashing lives and then thrown away...
Sitting high above me
...

Lacky:

Over hear, here I am. What can I do for you today?
Snitch on this, stich on that. Words that kill the only way.
...

Will He escape this sanity?
When He should and should not be
Screaming, Yelling, tax deduction
Lying to Him for destruction
...

I have to live within diesease
expected to appease
but the rage it shakes me fast
sometimes I wonder what I did last
...

I know just what I’ll do
Betraying me I betray you too
It’s not that my love is a lie
But there is this pain inside
...
