Clarence Thomas Poems

One seed can start a garden
One moment can change a life
One conversation,
Can start a friendship
...

Feeling the setting sun burn against my back
I stood alone in grim anticipation
Watching the black sky roll inexorably toward me
But it was right then that you caught my eye
...

I’m tired of always running away,
When all I ever wanted was a place to stay.

I’m tired of being surrounded by others in life,
...

Today I decided to write a poem just for you
So I sat down with pen in hand, and began to
Carefully consider in which way I could express to you
All the things you mean to me,
...

Lost I wander in this self-inflicted night,
No moon or stars in the sky give me light.
Wearily, I stumble and fall aimlessly,
Longing only for someone to rescue me.
...

It is not enough to complain about something,
Unless you are willing to try to make it better.
For then nothing will ever change.
...

Remember me when I’m no longer with you
When regretfully, I can no longer stay
Remember the great times we’ve had
When I’m no longer a part of your day
...

Sometimes, I want to laugh
Sometimes, I want to cry
Sometimes, I’m happy to be alive
Sometimes, I want to die
...

Alone I walked along the crashing waves,
The only ones I had to wash away my tears.
But then suddenly I found you there at my side,
And you relieved me of all my fears.
...

So badly I needed you now,
But you couldn’t see somehow.
In you I put all of my hope,
To you I clung like a rope.
...
