Hannah Barham Poems

'Have I said too much?
There is nothing more
I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do
...

I haven’t fallen
No, baby, I’d never fall
For you.
I’m not selfish enough
...

There is a certainty to death.
It waits on no formality
and it treats all men the same.
The only certainty in life
...

If you knew
the overwhelming
confusion
disruption
...

We sit
Two metres between us
You scouring the net
Me
...

24 hours later
I still
catch your smell
as I walk.
...

And when time has passed
You will open the door
Say, come, sit, eat and drink
Let's talk a little
...

And spring begins
to show its face
earlier every year.
Single days
...

My music
Once never off
Is never on
Each song a link
...

Pen hovers
Brain whirrs
Nib to paper
Lifts again
...
