Barry Van Allen Poems

Away from me she runs,
and after her I go,
as reminders of the past are found again.
...

What is it this life holds for me,
... and everyone I know?
Is it up to me to tell them,
or just let their own lives show 'em?
...

Don't ever feel that I am setting you aside,
you are the reason for the things that I may do,
and do not worry that I may have found another,
for I have searched throughout my life for one as you.
...

So lightly and so softly,
the touch at mornings light,
so sweetly and so tenderly,
the kiss that says goodnight.
...

I want to really bad,
but, I just can't,
and I know that you shouldn't either,
and that is as tough as life can get,
...

I will carry yours for you,
if you dare carry mine for me,
who says that is all there is,
and all points in between ?
...

When we awoke this morning,
I felt a strange and different flow in me,
and my thoughts were filled,
with peace and gentle notions.
...

There aren't many that I give a damn about,
I can count them on my fingers,
and I know that those that care for me,
don't even leave the left hand.
...

You are still his little girl,
even if your'e married twice,
If he's alive at 92,
- you are still his little girl!
...

The train sits at the station,
waiting for a passenger,
looking for a destination,
and will do so with the patience of any saint...
...
