Randy McClave Poems

I am single!
Because no-one takes relationships seriously anymore,
They take it as a game to cheat and mingle
And then to go to another person's door.
...

You are weathered, tattered and torn
Just like my uniform,
Through rain, snow and hail we have been
Always for the win,
...

You pissed me off
Then all you did was cough,
You thought you did nothing wrong
But, I'm still strong.
...

I loved you more than you will ever know
But, your feelings you never did show,
Whenever I could I proudly held your hand
I did it as a desire, and never as a demand.
...

I walked upon the stage
Holding onto a single page,
Knowing not what to say
Or how I was going to portray.
...

I was called a snowflake
Because the words of a racist I would not take,
One thing that racists and bigots do not know
I like to be like the pure driven snow.
...

I'll never kill a deer
I'll never drink a beer,
In the military I have never served or fought
An American, am I not?
...

I am so sick and tired of ugly,
I am so sick and tired of it with a disgust
Because of it I have got sick and cussed,
What is to ever become of me.
...

I am who I am
Call me a sir or a ma'am,
You think that I give a damn
I am not who you think I am.
...

Over there is where we met
That moment I will not forget,
An unforgettable glimpse I then stole
And I hid it within my soul.
...
