Uriah Hamilton Poems

I’m writing the poetry of fragile souls
Sitting quietly in the broken sunlight
Of hopeful but fleeting romance.
...

A lone flower peaks
Out over the city
From a tenement roof.
She is speechless
...

A cold day freezes
My desperate thoughts
In a lonely place.
...

We’re sauntering slowly
In the exciting evening
Exchanging a mystical kiss
Soft moonlight avenue bliss;
...

I walked alone
In Ann Arbor last night,
But you were
With me again on South Main
...

A man follows an alluring woman
From a bookstore rendezvous
Through twisting streets
Of illicit passion;
...

I am naïve about relationships and kisses,
About the dreams that weave themselves
Around a fragile heart,
And I do not know how to protect
...

I have immense affection for poets,
Those desperate lovers who often lose
All vestiges of sanity in amorous pursuits.
...

Deserted by love
In the summertime,
I walk by the river
And speak to seagulls
...

Woman, you are the one who lingers
In my mind with aching tenderness,
But you are hidden in the distance,
Walking through the business world
...
