Bryan Alexander Poems

They watch over you, when I can not
they shower you with the silver blue gleam
of precious stones and fine things
I can not give to you
...

Sweet dancer
on the desert winds
like falls leaves
or a drunkard on gin
...

every cell in my body that has longed
for you
the lungs that breathed you in
your heart that pumped my blood has died
...

I saw a counterfeit smile
stretched for miles
sent through satellites
or telephone wire
...

Like a rocket
shot from my head
to the pages I scribble on
from here in my bed
...

and your voice
is bounced off a satellite
in outer space
and beamed to my phone
...

how did you know
Id still be up around 2
not doing much not dreaming yet
but I'm always thinking of you
...

A thousand times I wished for you
always at 11: 11
always on a star
To come to me from where you ran to
...

do not call
do not write
You who would play my heart
like a broken violin
...

you left suddenly
Like candlelight from a room
when the wick is spent
and can give light no more
...
