Colin Coplin Poems

How many letters have I written you
None of which I sent
They’re all in my dressing table draw
Waiting to be read
...

A world divided amongst itself cannot stand, some say
The greater the delay, the greater the cost, it's not sophisticated law (to make pain go away)
The threat to peace, is peace itself, I guess it's a simple choice
'shall we put an end to the human race' or shall we seek a cure?
...

As the days, roll on into years, one thing remains unchanged
The love I found, when I first met you, has never disappeared
It grows stronger, and gets better, with each year
In our love story without end
...

Pyramid on the mountain, three windmills on the bay
School of thought nestled amongst olive trees, sailing boats at play
Voices echo down gentle slopes, clock chimes nine at night
The sun has yet to set, red clouds promise new delight
...

Strangers come, strangers go, selling love, is not the way to go
It's not right, it's not fair, human kindness ain't found there
But it's the only life she knows
I guess we're lucky, we have a choice
...

Empty pockets on a foreign land, good time to be bagged
For the price of a dollar, maybe a ten
Thank God, they take credit card here
...

Spare me from the story, don't tell me about the news
Don't want hear your bias, or one sided views
No news is good news,
Don't tell me the story, don't tell me about the news
...

I stole a glimpse of you, as you passed on your way
Must be a busy day, you didn't notice me
Sometimes things, just turn out that way
Two ships passing in the night, only one notices, the others light
...

A poem about a rock star...

I ain't looking for conversation
I ain't giving no chivalry
...

You don't know how beautiful, you are
You have no fault, so beautiful you are
You've turned my whole world around
Over, under, sideways, up, down
...
