Matthew Holloway Poems

I loved you too much
The fault was entirely my own
...

The queen of diamonds
~
Her beauty broke my heart
Her smile caught my dreams
...

The beautiful heart
~
I would marry every word
Betroth each metaphor
...

This charred and frightened land
Once of meadows green
...

Had I lived another life
~
Had I lived another life
What would I have to show in equal years
...

A sombre romance
~
Dying flowers in a vase
Mindless routines becoming motions
...

I am finding my heart drawn and given freely
To you who I never knew felt this way
...

It is in her causal gaze
Those gentle which eyes shimmer
Embracing her portrait
Her beauty captivates
...

~
Hope
every soul needs it
however it comes
...

~
there are those days
where you sit screaming
only for silence to fill the room
...
