Dustin Newman Poems

A one sided battle I know I cant win.
A one sided love. Oh where to begin.

I give all I that have but its never enough.
...

Into the night the little wings beat.
Within ones body does the light show.
Lost without guidance, ready to retreat.
A small soothing light that begins to glow.
...

I'll never forget the time and the place.
Every single moment that I glimpsed your silhouette.
Your eyes bear witness to my folly
Though forgivness is their nature.
...

As the cold winter's bite fades into the past,
So too must the pain of memories gone.
And when those thoughts, removed at last,
More humble a person you are alone.
...

The rain beats against a window.
Telling me I am drowning.
Speaking to me in a soothing voice.
Memories flood my sight.
...

Perception gives me hope.
As it should.
But is it real or is it a facade?
Do I want to know?
...

Open the book.
Read to me our story.

'Upon ones chest, subtly breaks.
...

You gave me the most beautiful gift.
Life, some would say. But it is you.
Without you, life's choices are without consequence.
Your notes of me console my heart.
...

Pick'en myself up. Dust'in myself off.
Regardless of the blocks, blood is fillin the cloth.
Keep the swings comin, only half connect.
The rest I laugh off, I deserve respect.
...

A solemn remark. A pointless notice.
A remembrance of you.
My countless omissions of sincerity pass as souls from the earth.
Opportunities wrought with error.
...
