Tara W. Johnson Poems

Saw to believe what shouldn't have been...

Whatever made me see, made me believe...
That the images they sell are illusions & dreams...
...

Nothing but a graveyard...
Flowers everywhere, cant even stare without being colorblind.
Its a line at funeral homes,
Sad songs, am I wrong for not wanting to wake-up and smell the fresh roses...
...

You and me together
in silence,
complete silence.
But I can hear our hearts
...

She's not where she suppose to be!
She's going to where she should be.
She's just no longer incomplete
but standing on her own two feet!
...

*Dream State*
She woke up in a DREAM STATE
~Turned over ~
he's laying over there snoring...
...

ONE'S 12 HOUR SHADOW

Twelve hours to focus
And redefine one's abilities
...

If I could make a wish
And have it last forever and a day,
I would take you in my arms
And this is where I'd stay..
...

They said my mouth would get me in trouble, And it did
(Tho I still can't find the words to act as if I CARE)
But not the kind they suspected,
Because that trouble I rejected
...

Now that we're so far apart
I love, yearn and ache for you even more. The only thing that keeps me awake
and going strong is knowing
that you love me
...

Look to the crowd

Today I stand proud, and scream it proud. That I was drug through the mud, but I'm now cleansed through the power of the blood. (Of Jesus)
