Michael Ernst Poems

This may be the biggest question of your life
Looking for the answers you just don't know
Some desperaely need you to stay
Others could'nt care less if you go
...

I saw her again today
Still not easy after all this time
Told her she was looking great
Followed by a lie, said I am doing fine
...

She and I have alot in common
We were born in the same town
Came into the world at the same hospital, its true
Did'nt know it at the time
...

Damn the words I never told them
Damn the words I wish I never said
Damn the would've, could've, should've
Damn the why did and why didn't I's in my head
...

When I close my eyes
You are all I see
Anytime day or night
It brings you back to me
...

You believed in me many more times than once
And I let you down about the same amount
Neither of us have the exact number
Not in our heads, but I know your heart kept count
...

The sun will no longer kiss the morning
Gone will be the stars from the evening sky
Mountains will turn to valleys
And the seven seas shall run dry
...

She never knew
She owned me at hello

She never knew
...

One didn't listen
One didn't talk

One wouldn't argue
...

On silver wings 35,000 feet closer to the sun, I see below me a river
Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
It knows not why it flows.. only that it does
...
