Nina Nash Poems

Difficult to breathe
Even harder to cry
When I open my mouth
Water spills in
...

I just want to be swallowed in this romance.
This harlequin dream
I want to be the requiem
For all that you have lost
...

Before you came and went, I missed you.
I lay in my bed alone
And cried because you were not there
I felt your tight fist around my heart
...

I wish I could be lying,
when I tell you that I need you
That friendly jabs and accidental touches
Didn’t scorch my core
...
