James Darwin Smith II Poems

Radiance, Sweet radiance
Bring forth all your sublime
Brighten up this face
Sweet radiance
...

Upon a day’s dread arrives
In solitude’s arms, dismayed
Yearning for something felt before
As the heart begins to beat in disarray
...

Towards the sky,
Dreams lay breathless
Pausing for beautiful serenity
Resting at ease
...

Love, I am overcoming your pain
Or am I?

So much passion lost today
High fiving ambitions paving the way
...

Drain the harmony
Of what is false in essence
Effervescent abnormality
In the twisting of love
...

Angel, It so dark and cold
Dreary of torrential redundancy
Take me to the land of that shines
Inside the heart of an all-around love
...

My parents on June 8th 2013 had their 50th anniversary. So I wrote this in the celebration of such an epic feat
...

An Angel cried
Ice came out of her very eyes
Full of shame
And I have no idea why
...

It was all for you love
The tears, the pain and struggles
All sacrificed in your name
And then what happened?
...

The narrow reigns heavy
Torrential in duplicity
Dark clouds over the horizon
Storming into earnest dreams
...
