Stephen Carey Poems

The very first time I saw you
I knew you were the one
Who was next to steal
The throne of my heart.
...

I look at you,
And what is this feeling inside of me?
I am unsure,
This thing I am feeling, what could it be?
...

I built a tower.
You cannot build a tower
Without someone wanting to tear it down.
...

Blue is my best friend.
Lonely is my reflection.
Depression is my conscience.
heartache is my shadow.
...

Yes, I remember the day we met.
There was no room for you n my mind,
Let alone my heart.
I just let you walk away, I let you go.
...

I had thought I had finally got it right,
When I looked on your face and saw your light,
But I found that I had not, with all of my might,
And I left, never to see you again, running swift to the night.
...

We said goodbye again.
We both walked away.
You took a piece
Of me with you.
...

For weeks you are out of my sight,
I cry each and every last night.
To this rope I'm trying to hold tight,
But I'm slipping and nothing is right.
...

I try to find words
To describe how I feel,
But it all comes out in a mess.
I feel such pain,
...

Those very simple words
'I love you'
Are not as simple as
'I miss you'
...
