Dalton J Brown II Poems

This is one of those nights, one of those nights.
Unspoken poetry lingers in the thick night air.

This is one of those nights, one of those nights.

You died Jan.26,1996.
On that day, time had no begining and no end.
I never knew what a friend meant until then.
That accident should have never occurred.
...

Time passes like sand
Thru an hour glass
My love constant still
remains
...

Today as I walking I found a picture of a little boy as I stared at this picture I began to experience pain in a way never before. I found it to be extremely hard to walk away with a smile. I write these few words as I stare at the little boy in this picture, I could feel the hurt and pain he must have had in his heart as he stood and cried.

I continued to stare and to my amazement I imagined myself stepping into the picture and speaking to the little boy. Tears will last only a little while yet pain, hurt and misery will last it seems like an eternity. We must continue to journey through this world filled with anger, bitterness, hardships and heartaches yet as we journey we will make very many mistakes. Some of these mistakes will be embedded in our hearts and minds for as long as we live and with each mistake we make we also must learn to forgive.

As she lay by the silent river,
gazing at the stars above;
listening to the sounds of darkness,
and the cries of people who are
...

Born of the day I wrote it for you
Its pages unfolded are fresh and new
Read this with your heart
For it will disclose
...

Now I know you on light am
And each minute
I you breathe, you I live
Both in dream, and in a reality
...

This pain of misery and torment
I can no longer embody

Soul angry desiring peace
...

Yours are the eyes that shine
And light up my spirit

Yours are the lips that smile
...
