Peter S. Quinn Poems

So high in no-one else sky
I will fly now on to you
Never saying again goodbye
And always try to be true
...

I want to touch
To give glow

You know where my heart is
...

I am a leaf in your hands and your eyes
Morning that comes for a day to believe
In the hours of off thoughts the nights gave
Lonely in their mood and cornered darkness
...

I’ve looked for moments of love
Through air, earth and water waves
Like a caged bird
The scars of my heart have come out
...

The river is in struggle
Because of the sand at the bottom and the pebbles that get in its way
But it shall overcome and flow again free
On its way to the sea
...

Come get some fire inside
Turn on the gleams that hide
Play it now cool
Rule - now - rule!
...

What I can do I can do again
I have a thought in my afterbrain
Roller coaster pain
It's all about a roller coaster pain
...

This enchantment that stays never the same,
The heart is a lonesome match to each play;
Like that of a flickering fire burning flame,
Nothing that distracts it shall be or stay.
...

Somewhere along - hope sometimes die
With every love that has given the rays
Morning comes after in dark amber sky
Filling our yearnings - in its clouds of grays
...

I'm only now getting used to my heart
Breaking with love from summer to its fall
The moods of sunshine and rain's falling call
From footsteps that inside begin each start
...
