John Duffy Poems

The Sonnet of the Lone Guardian Angel

(A lone voice whispers)
...

Now my life's great party's over and this Black Hole

I now live within
Ruled over by Father Sin
...

Some may call me a charlatan

A new reborn follower of a King
...

I first met you in my childhood
And I can still remember

When I used to look out of that bedroom window
...

A voice whispered at 1 am.

As I sit alone at the worn gates of Yesterday
...

The Seduced

Does the lonely soul with broken wings
...

Did you once love me

Or is it still just another darkly lit daydream
...

Like a message lost
As unknown high seas claimed her
Should I swim to look
...

A story I must share

As I entered my
Secret White Room
...

Are the Broken

Always unconsciously
Attracted to the broken
...

When the grey smoke came

I just held onto a soft hand
Don't forget me
...

In the twilight hours
Just when the grey clouds

Break and the slow moon rises
...

Whenever I pause

In these tranquil quiet
...

Her fake but effective pagan tears

Fall crushing spellbound gods and addicted kings or queens
...

With Words

Let me bind you forever or temporarily
With lashings of lascivious dark words
...

In This Great In-Between
At this very hour

As the pagan brothers in the black shadows
...

My Sophia

We are like the mythical
Adam and Eve
...

Will you
Come all

Yes
...

Let me in
I whisper in the darkness
Across deep oceans and rocky shores
...

Although you left me
One night for another

Leaving me forever to sit alone in the dark
...

The Best Poem Of John Duffy

The Sonnet Of The Lone Guardian Angel

The Sonnet of the Lone Guardian Angel

(A lone voice whispers)


Some walk alone
seeking salvation


Others in groups seeking redemption


Through a silent breath, they all sing the same songs


A convergence of emotions to redo old wrongs


A joining of minds to continue the journeys


Emancipation has always been the lone cries


Voices echoing in the darkest of nights


We hear you and you are never alone


We see you


We are always by your side


This life has never been just a one-person ride


We are always with you in those lonely dark nights


An invisible hand to hold just hidden from sight


Keep your faith in yourself and whatever maybe


The sun will shine just you wait and see


I was bestowed at birth to only you


By your Almighty old friend


To help you in all that you contend


In all that you do


I am a secret friend who nobody sees

To inspire all that is deep awaiting release


I visit nightly when you are asleep


When the world is quiet and you no longer weep


I walk in your deep dreams and we link arms and converse


We speak in all languages where nothing is terse


So if you have a glorious dream


If you wake up and still feel emotions and empowerment from a person unseen


It's simply me


Your guardian angel in life's twisted labyrinthine
