Deborah Cromer Poems

You must know and accept in your heart that there is reason to live
I want time with you, quality time, for this life has so much to give
No tubes attached to oxygen tanks into your nose to carry around
Pumping and hissing, making a loud, unnatural sound
...

Cigarettes kill, you know this, but yet each day you die
You matter more to me than you do to yourself, I don't know why
Reason to live is yours, I give you the power, I give you the gift
Your spirit will rise, with life your soul begins to lift
...

My eyes grow blurry and I cannot see
Why does death come to take me
I cannot stop my tears, nor keep from crying
To think that I may be dying
...

I had a dream in which I could fly
Taking off into flight without wondering why
I sailed through stars until I reached heaven
Then my alarm went off and it read seven
...

I will love you forever, with no end
Taking your memory to my deathbed, with eternity to spend
Keeping you alive in my thought, you cannot die
Together always I will be happy, I will never cry
...

A lover you are with an amazing style to care
Your skin is magic, a dream come true, so sexy when bare
I loved your heartbeat in ecstasy, pounding with pleasure
Making love with you was an endless, complete giving treasure
...

The first time we saw each other face to face
You asked for a hug and in your arms I found my place
Just in the first 10 minutes of being together with you
I knew that you were special, rare and one of the few
...

No voice, no chance to be heard, nothing but despair
A situation of evilness from a man who just DID NOT CARE
My life, my freedom, ALL of my love, hope and dreams
Blown apart and massacred, ripped apart at the seams
...

Up into the light, from the deepest of dark
I have emerged above with a single spark
Glowing I grow and continue to shine
Stronger I live, wishing you were still mine
...

If one time I wrote of horror and dread
Words of pain and sorrow, wishing to be dead
Believe always I write only of pages
A bizarre twist of darkness, passed down from the ages
...
