Erica Hemenway Poems

That place you call home,
where you feel safe and secure.
That place begins to change.
Not the place,
...

This is a race.
A race to the end.
Push! Push! Push!
Harder, faster, longer!
...

My first best friend
in the whole world.
So young, naive.
I want to protect you,
...

It's back,
so long an absence,
but to leave me hopeful.
A passionate pause, full of brightness.
...

This thing that is happening
This thought that is creating
This feeling that is forming
These lives now colliding
...

Thoughts of you bring a smile to my face.
Memories of us together take away the doubt,
Hearing your voice eases the storm,
Seeing your face soothes my fears,
...
