Laura Ballou Poems

Please never love me
For only then will you leave me
And I will need you all
over again.
...

Even if I am just another nice girl
Whose quiet smile
has always reassured
begging for your genorosity
...

The running of a warm tear
cascading down a thoughtless face
where the mind wanders
to matters unspoken
...

Think young forever
because today
may as well be your eternity.
And don't wake the little girl inside
...
