Lance Carthen Poems

I lie nailed by knives to decaying wood under a bridge.
Her gentle footsteps bring me a calming sensation.

I sit as a quadriplegic in a wheelchair, breathing on a ventilator.
...

The moon will set upon the pale blue sky.

Stars will shine to illuminate the night.
...

I could cry all day but crying hurts my head.
When I see your eyes, I know theres nothing left.
True love lasts forever, now that is a myth.
Each day I wake up alone in the bed we once shared.
...

To embracable depression for artistic release.

Silence engulfs the haunted meadow of the still pond.
...

Not a word was spoken.
His eyes were in tears.
He stood there alone.
Cried I love you my dear.
...

From hells comet it crashed upon earth.
Invading the minds of souls of the weak.
The comets crash stopped the suns shine.
A throne atop an unknown religion it would find.
...

She cries and cries, everyday.
About her past, about her pain.
Life owes her, she just knows.
And until that day, she will carry on.
...

Take my hand...
Show me the way.
To the promised land,
Of love and strength.
...

Smiles in the trees.
Frowns upon the ground.

Reflection from a cracked glass...
...

She got her beaudity buzz on.
The panties have come off.
She wants you to want her.
But she doesnt want to kiss.
