Daniel Wittfoth Poems

So you say that you don't care
yet you're still standing here
torn betwen the good and bad
...

You call yourself lover
act like it too
Now suddenly you're too busy
to do what lovers do
...

I watch you sleeping
I am barely breathing
Reach out to you
I hesitate as you begin to fade from me
...

Rain falls
a single leaf
floats down from a willow tree
...

Verse 1

The best laid plans
don't always go
...

I remember
waking up to the sound
saturday morning cartoons
G.I. Joes raging war
...

We were innocent
thought we could walk on water
thought we could stand in the fire
Nothing could break what we had discovered
...

What is there left to say
when all the words have already been spoken
And what wasn't said
just seems to linger in the air-thick and cold
...

Give in
sounds good
Continue on
I'm not sure it's worth the fight
...

That last kiss we shared
still lingers here
The softness of your lips
pressed into my memory
...
