Gabe Florsheim Poems

I don't need a miracle.

I dont even want the girl with a perfect smile
or the one that laughs and sings along to her favorite songs.
...

Life is like a beautiful flower
Each day as unique
As each petal of each.
...

I just want to find an oasis in the desert.
I just want to see a spark in the darkness.
I just want to get my breath in the asphyxiating gas.
...

Unrecognizable,
This picture is a blur
because you see what they see;
what they want you to see.
...

There is this time and hours,
We all will come and dream;
And find the little flowers,
That seeds will give to stream.
...

Star crossed lovers of household war
Alike and destined to be no more
With ill fated love as all they bore
For each were shallow paramour,
...

We were one.

We were unified and obsolete. I was open and free. I was myself.
I finally touched another heart but the greetings were shifty.
...

It doesn't matter that love is blind, deaf, and dumb; We are impervious.
It doesn't matter that you feel so far away: I will always be with you in your heart.

It doesn't matter that I can't be with you forever; Know that I am always there to hold you in my arms.
...

Dedicated to my MOM.

My mother taught me something for every year I’ve survived her;
...

Please give me wings.
Teach me the sky.
A bird in it's cage
can learn how to fly.
