Why does he keep me hostage
If he doesn’t even want me?
Why does he make me suffer
If he doesn’t care how I feel?
...
The bare trees look beautiful against the sky
Why should I cry
...
Can't keep up with the dust
Can’t get rid of the rust
Can’t run faster than fast
Can’t keep time in a glass
...
I love you like a cliché
I’m not ashamed one bit
If love is a crime, I plead guilty
No, I am not innocent
...
I’m not done with you, my dear, no, not yet
Still can’t forget you, my bitter-sweet regret
I still remember your smile and sweet embrace
As I hold your soft warm pillow to my face
...
Can words paint a picture in the mind
Can a poem evoke a memory
...
The late sun turned two birds into four
In the glare they all seem like shadows
...
The grass is red
where the flowers had fallen from the trees
...
To dream
What for
Disappointment on hold
Life unfolds
...
I am my poem
That's why I write
To find out who I am inside
...
