Danny Speicher Poems

Video Game Victor viewed video
And audio inside his studio
Where he had a very nice patio
Of which no one knew, then, or knows today
...

No different from any other year
The carousel goes around and around
And miles away you can hear its sound
But, one thing is different, you're not here
...

To all of those who failed to envision
Life I painted in my wildest dreams
Failed to look past the surface as it seems
And see me as more than chained in prison
...

When we talk, I talk strongly and boldly
Of grand schemes and master plans I speak
When we laugh, I laugh so effortlessly
You make me smile with humor, unique
...

It's over, It's over and I'm alone
Alone and confused and not knowing why
The pain would be less if I could just die
Oh, pain is greater than I've ever known
...

Father, in this stillness, in this darkness
I haven't the choice but to surrender
To solemnly, defeated now render
These weapons I once used for Your greatness
...

Praise and exultation, love and adoration
Exultation and worship to God almighty
Almighty God, most worthy, and King of glory
Raised up from generation to generation
...

I know you can't hear me, calling to you
I know you won't reach for my outstretched hand
The gap is too wide, the expanse too grand
So, I can only pray God pulls you through
...

I love you, love, except when I hate you
For sweet things whispered in the still of night
For how beautiful you were in my sight
Oh, love, how my love remains ever true
...

Run, run away from things you know are true
Further, further past all you used to do
And choose only what your heart wants to hear
Nonetheless, if look for me, I'm near
...
