Damon Harper Poems

The sounds my ears sip from my lover’s tone

In but just whispers
...

My precious love

I prayed for us.
...

Covered up by layers of desperate forgetting
Buried deep inside someplace not near my heart
Is all that pain, hurt, and sadness.
Forgotten until now
...

Her strength for some time was her weakness
Determined to change a rigid fate
The deep pain repeating thru times unkind hand
The lessons learned but never forgotten
...

Rolling over me like a crazy wave hand in hand with time
I give in.. I allow the pounding rushing flow to overcome me
I sink deep into the ink.. I fall deeper inside the lines
I convey unto you the meenings i take from your words
...

As I sit at here I picture myself someplace else.

I imagine a place warmer, and more brightly lit.
...

Then she landed into me….. Crashed, and blazing
My heart afire from her hot white glow
As she sinks deeper into me burning like acid
Consuming me to my hearts core my souls home
...

Shapeless reflections catch my minds eye as they go by
Forming momentary thoughts that emerge like puzzles
The far flung wonder of tomorrows rest upon this instant of now
Selflessly, I place each one down, I let go
...

I woke to find the earth touched by the rain of the night
While I was in a midnight slumber
Building up again the power of Gia within me.
My night not marked with a black void
...

As we embraced, I got to taste
Your body, your soul and your mind.
As bright as a flair in the nights cold crisp air
I felt for a time, that you were mine.
