Emily Casbourn Poems

Did you know that when it snows I start to sing a lullaby?
I wait upon the arrival of a golden Christmas Eve
In the rooms I happily sigh
Weighing choices of my life
...

If you were told that gifts were proper
You wouldn't ignore it
From the beginning of time
We have all shared our stories
...

Imagine you were on a building
Singing at the top of your lungs
Waiting for the right time to come
If you listened to your heart
...

You are bound from the start my love
Why is this so?
You ask alot of questions
I don't know all the answers
...

If I had just one wish
You'd be the one I would wish for
Even though you’re not living
I would want to know you more
...

If I had a gun pointed at me
You wouldn't help me
How could you let it fly?
If I was sick and unwell
...

Like a snakes venom poisons you
You got poisoned by something else
Just for thinking about being someone you shouldn’t be
Everything goes blank for you
...

When you can’t sleep
You become so tired you can’t begin to explain it
You toss and turn throughout the night
Everyone is scared because you can’t sleep anymore
...

I knew he wouldn’t remember
I told him the truth
He had forgotten it all
Nothing I said mattered anymore
...

Moonlight as we see it
beauty beyond all else
he stalks his prey
the ultimate price to pay
...
