Kewayne Wadley Poems

When I got off work
I stopped by to check on your heart.
When I got there I was treated like a stranger.
Of all the times I'd come by
...

Since meeting you
There is no more waking up
Wishing.
There is no God without you
...

Crime doesn't pay
A bittersweet means of survival.
Eating crumbs dangled from the
bottom of your lips.
...

She was a dictionary to me.
No matter what I asked
She had a special way of putting things.
She taught me that not everything
...

I closed my eyes
& Drew you like you were standing
In front of me.
I dressed you as a memory that
...

The ship refused to move
She's grown tired of the storm.
The rocking, the tossing &
The turning.
...

Her love was a party
With comfortable chairs
& A decorative cake.
I was a balloon on a string
...

Before meeting you
I was introduced to you
Now I am criticized of my love
For you.
...

I stand outside and wait for you
Romanticized in anticipation.
I am free and am myself in you.
This climax covered head to toe.
...

There are days, some more important
Than most.
But today that is not the case.
You packed everything into your cocoon
...
