Daniel McCann Poems

Looking through pictures of what we used to be
young faces
old image
but the moments we shared are still new to me
...

Driving past in the car he stole
Wearing his expensive suit
Staring out the window
The hoodys stand in their group
...

Can I hold you?
I just wanna hold you.
I dont know why?
I wanna hold you.
...

I sit here and sigh, I dont know why
mayby it is a sigh of relief
my delight; delighted at the loss of grief
but agsighity still takes control...
...

I only realise how drunk I am when I look in the toilet mirror.
'Wow you are wasted'.
I swear I had more money than this? let me wet my hair.
'That's better'.
...

I ask the receptionist where the hitman is.
She tells me hes been awaiting my arrival
hes just down the corridoor, the third door on the left
One, two, three. Its the only one with a red cross.
...

You sit taking the attention from all the boys
girl your pretty little self is what I avoid
I wont buy you a drink when you have more than you can carry.
I wont buy you a drink. Your table is full.
...

You know we`re afraid to wake because of fear
we can dream
we can book a flight to heaven
we can get the hell outa here
...

In darkness you couldn't see your sky was blew
I watched society capture you
fracture you
it left you. Alone.
...

I stand watching you throw away your life
you are wearing a wedding ring
yet you have lost your wife
because you look around the room
...
