Kelli D. Williams Poems

I sit on my porch
Watching the rain hit the ground
Not a child is laughing
Not a sound is made
...

I look at the portrait
Above the fireplace
But I can't find a trace
Of the faces that use to be there
...

I've got a new boyfriend
That's sweet and true
He's very funny
And handsome too
...

We use to watch the stars
Shooting 'cross the sky
We use to laugh so hard
That it would make us cry
...

I hold you in my arms
My heart melts
You put a smile on my face
And bring warmth to this place
...

I'm tired of hurting you
It kills me inside
It makes me want to run and hide
...

I slit my wrists
To ease the pain
And the blood starts falling
Like crimson rain
...

All my life
I wished upon that shooting star
I wished that you were not that far
From me
...

I lay in my bed
Staring at the ceiling
I'm trying to sort through
All my feelings
...

Last night I had a dream
A horrible nightmare
I dreamed that you left me
That you were no longer there
...
