Emma Kessler Poems

• Despair
  Distraught That's what I am Why does the world have to be like this?
• Dedicated To.......
  I'll never waste a chance To be by your side Take every chance I get To look into your eyes
• The Women Of Death
  The women of death Loom over the heartbroken Weighing down upon them Speaking the only words they know
• Word Of Your Death
  Word of your death Grabbed me by the throat and choked every remaining bit of hope from me
• The Sea, That Is, Your Eyes
  The blue of your eyes, reminds me, of a calm sea And they have the same effect on me The calm sea, it pulls me, right in It makes me want to just stroll in, and stay in, all day
• What If The World Was Just A Book?
  What if the world was just a book Some other man has written? And we were just the characters Playing out our parts
• Inspiration
  Inspiration It calls with noiseless words It creates a stringless knot That binds together poet and pen
• No Longer Can I Stay
  My tongue is heavy With words I have left unspoken I want to tell you But my heart thinks I would be mistaken
• In The Wrong World
  I have been here Too long Trapped in the wrong world For so many terrible years
• Trees Of Paper, Pools Of Ink
  I pass the shallow pool And the water nymphs smile up at me Out of the water, with angelic, childlike faces
• Only In My Heart
  You seem to be here Hiding in my shadow Often you feel so real That I feel your breath
• You Killed Me
  Hot eyes Burning salt Dried on my skin Constantly replenished
• When Did That Change?
  You look at me, and I find That I have no desire to look back You smile at me, and I find That my stomach stand still
• Too Far, Too Fast
  I feel like I'm falling In too deep, to quickly Too far, too fast
