Carlene Maddux Poems

As I dare not speak a word, I feel it still shows in my eyes.
A pain I will never share; forever locked in time.
Forty years has passed, and still there it lies.
It becomes a part of you, like a hidden mine.
...

My heart surrendered, In a complete abyss!
A feeling so pure, and true.
I prayed for your happiness.
For the Angel's, to always watch over you.
...

Last time I show you my love.
Last chance to capture a dream.
A true love from the stars above!
Deep trust that lays unseen.
...

Love is but a memory that consumes my soul.
I have the lock and you have the key.
A fire that burns like coal
It's a never ending dream for me.
...

Shinning like the brightest light,
Love extending from my heart.
Many years I did fight.
For the righteous to be imparted,
...

As life takes its course, full of adventure and wonder.
One day at a time, through laughter, joy even tears.
Holding on to one more moment, is our desire.
The human weakness and all its fears.
...

An overwhelming sense of shock and dismay claimed my soul.
I sat and wondered how I can escape the trap I plunged into.
I cried out to God, help me before it takes its toll.
As I thought of what had happened, and ounce was.
...

I see my Angel has left me now,
The world is bare somehow.
As we layed on the grass,
and gazed at the stars.
...

As he builds me up for a path unknown,
He places peace and quietness, in a lost soul.
I could not fathom his purpose, why me.
Cries of sadness from those I love.
...

Love is a heartbeat within ours souls,
Changing life, with all its foes.
A painful feeling it can be!
It's also a feeling that can set you free.
...
