Alison Mary Dunn Poems

As I sit with you here
spelling out every tear
Telling mind heart and soul
of the things that I fear
...

We clasp our hands
to close the gap in our divide
To feel the Negative of
...

As I strolled by to kill some time
Monroe lay poised on show
A tiger’s eyes leaped out at mine
All posters in a row
...

I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand
...

It wrote my pain once again, this pen
And there it is, all spilled out in a language
Not quite how I speak, but utterly honest
from my heart, here I weep
...

I close the window on the world
Taking with me what I’ve kept from the day
In my mind, in my head, to relay to convey
What I’ve felt, what I’ve seen, every image of life’s
...

Sleeping beauty lays eternal
My friend the ghost forever now
You chose to slip beyond the veil
In search of peace and peace you found
...

I say hello, one small
hello. To let you know
That I’m still here
You play the game and
...

Eyes took what they think they saw
as being strange, or what was heard
explained in theory, by other viewers
Squinting to fathom what it meant
...

When clouds fade I see a dawn of dreams unfold in the fall of words
Floating from the blue sky like snowflakes melting in the sun
They’re always there in the cypher of change where joy and pain will meet
and disperse behind the smiles we choose to keep
...
