David Harris Poems

Your fingertips seem just out of reach,
like the lifeline to a drowning man.
Tears haze my eyes,
like the morning mist.
...

Everyone has a dream to chase
In hopes one day it will come true
That keeps them alive
During winter breezes
...

The flickering flecks of stardust
dance in your hair
as we run along the beach
being teenagers again
...

In everything we do lies a melody
that absent tune we cannot hear.
Some call it the rhythm of life
that follows us step by step
...

For Vera, Suzanne and Danielle
(The three ladies in question.)

Underneath the backdropp of the Rockies
...

When you are stressed,
the demons awaken in your mind.
Positive becomes negative,
confusion reins supreme.
...

There are wasted moments
when I was afraid.
Afraid to set myself free.
Free from the stigma
...

The lure of writing
is not an easy one to break
once it has you in its grip.
It won’t let you go,
...

In the silence of the shadows
a heart lay in tatters,
torn apart by loves advances
of an unwanted kind.
...

These shoes have walked a million miles
with the souls of men
who will never see
the sun rise again.
...
