Matthew Edan Oliver Palma Poems

Somewhere in the scrapbook
Lies a picture of you and me
A glimpse of how we used to be
Some old memory that’ 's left in me
...

i dreamt of having you beside me
i dreamt of holding you
i prayed the heavens to hear me
and the angels brought me you...
...

We boldly take our chances
Try hard to keep it down
Play on with our disguises
Until nobody’ 's around
...

So alone and feeling lonely
Tears run down on my cheeks
I had to let you go
But babe, I love you so
...

How can I live my life without you?
How can I reach for tomorrow?
When you’ 're gone there'’ ll only be sorrow
And in my heart the pain of losing you …
...

Mad as a hatter, fuming like a fiery kettle…
Can't bring emotions down to settle…
Been caged up in this bottle…
Feelings go full throttle…
...

I bow out
from the promises that I made
from the bracelets that I keep myself willingly chained
I bow out
...

The icons of our youth have one by one passed on...
Yet bravely we must live, continue to move on...
To keep their legacy alive we should ceaselessly dream on...
Hold the future in our hands, claim their victories our own...
...

Under the rain I drench myself
Drowning the loneliness that I truly felt
With every weak step the things I will miss
Remembering the last of our bitter - sweet kiss
...

Tonight… ...
I’ 'd love to feel your warm embrace…
Be one with you
Drown in your kiss
...
