Cory Fox Poems

The many led by few
Sets me apart from you
And everyone who lacks one keen desire
For the one wealth to find
...

At every dire turn
Please don’t fade away
Oh, when will I learn?
Just wait one more day…
...

Shivering on the icy floor
Hushed sobs in that dark place
Her hand shields her ashen face
From the cracked mirror on the door
...

“Believe in what you see
Because my eyes have never lied
If none would hear my plea
Will this mask hold me up inside?
...

His labored breathing hissed
As such a spiteful spirit sought
My blood spilled on the floor
Well, what are you waiting for?
...

Running hot blooded and young as the night
Stepped into this tunnel to pick my fight
Eyes dead ahead on a distant light
...

'Another tear drop, I regret
Fathoms the pain this heart can take'
Are you so eager to forget
Mountains have moved in your wake?
...

Shadows flicker in the hallway light
More whispers drifting through the night
You pretend I'm not there
I pretend not to care
...

Should gold be had from lead
Forge me a lavish crown
Because it need not be said
What makes the world go round
...

Tell me the tales of a heart so scarred
By a love so deep and surreal
That the words of the minstrel and bard
Never came close to what I feel
...
