Daniel Mauw Poems

Once the sun has gone down
The shadows will once again drown
In the nighttime mists
Where nothing exists
...

I want to cry, but I can't, I can only make one tear.
I want to smile, but I can only fake one with genuine fear.
The fear of failing, dying in your heart.
I want to laugh, but I can only stutter.
...

Walk around the meadows,
with its fog and its shadows
and notice the light
That sparkles so bright
...

At the end of the day
when all life's meanings have gone away
All that remains
is the will to stay up
...

I think I want to meet a ghost
I'd like him\her to be my paranormal host
Some one who'll guide me through the night
Along the path to the gate
...
