Christopher Stitz Poems

Ours is not to question why
Ours is but to do and die
If I fall and do not rise
Leave me there, say goodbye
...

You may be so far away,
But I'll see you again someday.
I don't need a shooting star,
To know you love me, near or far.
...

She reminds him of the moon.
Aways there and yet so distant.
Aways hiding the side of her he wants to see.
...

Let it burn
Bring it down
Even as the world turns
Into empty, ashen ground.
...

You're more beautiful than the moon or the stars,
I miss you with every beat of my heart,
I need you more than the sun or the air,
I'll love you forever, baby this I swear.
...

Like a whisper in the wind,
You were there, then gone again...
I looked up and saw your face,
Reached out, but was to late...
...

I walk these empty halls again,
So lost and cold without a friend...
These corridors of forgotten memories,
That show me what used to be...
...

My empty heart is breaking,
Slowly, coldly, dying...
The shadows, they have left me,
Alone, but afraid to cry...
...

She came to him with darkness in her eyes,
He looked upon her one last time,
Hit his knees and cried...
For beautiful though she was,
...

As the winds blow away,
The ashes of an empty day...
I stand alone in washed out embers,
Looking on forever...
...
