John McAndrew Poems

Why do you cry my love?
I cry for the cruelty,
Hatred, anger and slaughter.
I cry for the pain and torture.
...

The water on the stove,
Has boiled away again.
A thousand times we mean to leave this bed,
A thousand kisses,
...

Call the inspectors,
There's been an explosion of love,
At apt.10, via Lungge Tevere dei Flaminio
Love is flowing out of the windows,
...

Only short days ago we were together,
Afloat, in perfect union.
Now, this morning,
Alone, wretched,
...

Based on a true story,
My life had been.
A true story I tried to live,
A true story,
...

I think my soul is dark, mio amore,
And it will seek to destroy us,
To imprison your canary heart
In a cage,
...

A flock of swifts,
Dazzling, turning, beguiling,
Take me by surprise.
I lose myself.
...

Your constant prescence
Shatters my defences,
As washed up on your shore,
A thousand tiny pieces come together,
...

The Best Poem Of John McAndrew

I Cry, I Smile

Why do you cry my love?
I cry for the cruelty,
Hatred, anger and slaughter.
I cry for the pain and torture.
I cry for the loss and fear
And darkness.
I cry for you,
And I cry for me.
I cry for our fathers, mothers,
Daughters and sons.
I cry for everyone.

Why do you smile my love?
I smile for the sunshine,
The new day and the gentle rain.
I smile for love and change
And laughter.
I smile for the flowers,
The breeze in the haystack.
I smile for peace,
And joy and calm water.
I smile for you,
And I smile for me.
I smile for our fathers, mothers,
Daughters and sons.
I smile for everyone.
