John McClay Poems

Have you heard of the deafening silence?
It rips though your heart
And screams through your mind
...

I dream of a secret garden
Filled with roses
And a bench that seats two
...

With these hands I will defend you.
With these arms I will hold you.
With this heart I will love you.
...

I cannot think
I cannot breathe
Your arms are so warm
It amazes me
...

On one beautiful day
I wished upon a star
In hopes that my feelings
Would travel quite far
...

I'll give you my love
and ask nothing in return

I'll give you my heart
...

I wonder what it would be like to be a star?
Shining in the heavens,
Watching over the world
...

I wish I could show you
My surreal world
That you have inspired
...

I walk alone
On this one-way trail
Searching for what I seek
But to no avail
...

A dream catcher, made of wood and string
Catches nightmares
And safeguards good dreams
...
