Carrie Everett Poems

Do you love me?
I was asked that today.
Love is a strong word.
...

Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
But it's not enough to get by
I need to feel
...

 I saw a man that wasn’t there
 He wasn’t there, I swear
 But then there he was, as soon as I turned to stare
 Sitting upon the topmost stair
...

What do you do when your life is slipping away?
when so much has happpened?
And there's nothing you can say
And there's nothing yu can do
...

I love to hear you say that you love me
With words so sweet
And the way with just one
Whisper, You tell me everything
...

We were so in love that night.
I watched, you proved it with your eyes.
They were filled with a heavenly light.
My mind and body still full of delight.
...

What can you do when your heart's torn in two?
Your mind is going haywire
And you don't know what to do.
Life is a huge mystery
...

It's wrong to hate someone.
I think I should let you know.
Before I say it out loud.
And you reap what you sow.
...

How can I love you
Even as I hate you?
Your dark, sensual eyes, warm hands,
smart elect attitude...
...

You break my heart
Then put it back together
You play games
As unpredictable as the weather
...
