Jason Daniels Poems

I once had a nightmare,
In the form of a dream,
And while it played out,
I wanted to scream!
...

You dance on closed eyelids
You whisper in conscious ears
Your presence fills every room
Your touch tingles on every surface
...

Look to the horizon!
The light of Dawn has finally come!
Praise be to the light that saves us!
Rejoice in its warmth!
...

The stars that I see
Mean nothing to me
For when I see you
They fall out of view.
...

I love you to death.
I'd take a bullet for you.
No fire can burn us.
We will resist all evil.
...

I have this terrible notion
That I am capable of monstrous deeds.
The thought of taking a life,
To me, is like that of brushing my teeth.
...

We are weapons of war,
No enemy can defeat us!
We are masters of stealth,
You see us only if we want you to.
...

Losing the battle,
Losing the war...
Does it even matter anymore?
Cut my losses,
...

I close my eyes
And there he is
Just waiting to tear me down.
Each time I fight back
...

Sticks and stones
May break my bones,
But names will
Never hurt me.
...
