Charlie Bain Poems

A long time ago
My mother said to me
'Take to the land, child.
Be wild and free.
...

The fire burns with passion bright
Guiding me throughout the night
Giving me the Divines' insight
So I'll find my way to you
...

Come inside, dear
And shut the door on your way
Quickly now, don't dottle
Keep the outside light at bay
...

If such a thing as love exists
Between both you and I
A thousand tears shall be shed for you
From many a' woman's eye
...

A rose, a rose
A flower of red
Attraction and lust
So fills my head
...

The tree spirals upward
Her roots in the ground
Holding her steady
As her branches reach above
...

Once upon a midnight hour, as I climbed the old bell tower
And the staircase fell and rose around the circular walls
While I quietly traveled, creeping, suddenly I heard a peeping
Of a demon so silently reaping, reaping the souls in the tower hall.
...

I woke one morning
I gazed upon the dark grey sky
The rain heavy on my window
From the rain the previous night
...

She is the Moon
He is the Sun
They work together
In balance, as one
...

Don't touch me
Tell me it's not real
Tell me your lying
This sorrow that I feel
...
