Joey Mann Poems

Last night I walked through the land of lost souls
I walked among demons and devils and ghouls
Searching for a loved one, for she to was lost
I was determined to find her at any cost
...

You’ve steered me wrong, ‘O devil within
Seductress of evil, temptress of sin
From the moment I exited the womb
Till today when I enter the tomb
...

Why did I have to live this lonely life?
Final thoughts as I gripped the knife
Who will save me my soul bereft?
Will it be you; you’re all that’s left
...

There we stood deep in the trench
Pile of bodies, adding to the stench
The tanks rolling across the sand
Fighting for freedom in a distant land
...

Pre-flight fright
White knuckled fists gripping tight
Armrests and safety vests strapped to chests
Clasping seat belts, scared feelings felt
...

My love for you is still strong,
Though your love for me is now weak,
So I express my love through this song,
Hoping you give me the love I seek.
...

Inside this lonely heart
There is a tale that needs be told
Only it doesn’t know where to start
This sad story of old
...

Tonight I show you love, you reciprocate with hate
I maintain a peace, yet you initiate debate

What more can I do to make you mine
...

He lived his life on his own
Now he’s destined to die alone
The recurring dreams of his crime
Back again one final time
...
