Scarlett Treat Poems

The air was so crisp
And cold, we could hardly
Breathe, for it froze our lungs.
...

The house is empty now,
And lonely in its abandonment.
The family who used to be here,
The one who kept the house warm,
...

Let me dance just once more,
In my shining red shoes,
The ones which flash red sparkles
When I twirl around the floor
...

It's down the street from somewhere,
on a by-pass going nowhere,
and all the abandoned people go there
to lose the hurts of a hard life,
...

I went there, once, a long, long time ago,
For I felt I just had to go...
This world was so cruel to me,
And alone was the only thing I wanted to be.
...

In a willing moment,
one I enjoyed,
the half-remembered fragments
merge...
...

I am the dream keeper,
I know your night secrets!
Behind your eyes
I see everything....
...

I suffer from a very bad case
Of the Grand Illusion...
In fact, I really
Have it badly.
...

The sun was shining so brightly,
Shooting beams and arrows of light...
Like a spotlight, pinning me down
As my shadow and I
...

You were already
Just what I wanted
Before I realized
I wanted you! !
