Steven Elsner Poems

I'm hurt
Blood seeping through my shirt
My heart was the first to go
Next will be everything I know
...

The air grows colder
My only wish is to hold her
But alas, something went amiss
It started with our first kiss
...

I've been cracked
I never knew how much I lacked
Broken in two
Never have I felt this blue
...

I'm faded
Just transparent
Completely Jaded
And that's apparent
...

I'm tired of guessin',
So tired of stressin',
What could be,
And what should be.
...

I would love to be famous,
Not for the wealth,
But for my good health,
Because then I wouldn't be nameless
...

At first glance,
She put me into a trance.
With a second gaze,
I was awoken from a daze.
...

I'm plagued by nightmares
Locked in brutal warfare
I fight in vain
Yet nothing is to remain
...

I want to die
With not even a penny to my name
I want to die
Living life like a game
...
