Matthew Holloway Poems

I lay awake and think of you
Think about your arms, eyes, lips
The beat of your heart, your pulse
Your very scent filling the room
...

Technology
You rile the beast in me
The simplicity of your command
A designed set function
...

It's funny
In the most unpleasant way
How those little things
Bring back little memories
...

Oh how do we write
Dear poets
Our craft and guile
Our madness and beauty
...

When the laughter stops
~
And what when the laughter stops
Do we care to ask
...

Many a fanciful dream
~
I am found lost amongst many a fancy
a flight of fantasy a whisp of a dream
...

I wish to find a way
To express myself
In person to you
I know I fail so often
...

To the one that got away
my heart once sang of you
I courted every moment
when we could be together
...

Insomnia strikes again
Unlike lighting it hits multiple times
Leaving the woken soul
Staring up into the dark
...
