Lance Carthen Poems

A blue sky from a distant memory engulfs me.
Two little boys smiled and played.
Seems so long ago I lost my brother.
Each year that pass the memories slowly fade.
...

Lost without a word to say.
I didnt know it was the end.
When you are near my vision is clear.
When your away I feel the pain.
...

The deepest faith is found
In the darkest of places.
For those with broken hearts
And people with sad faces.
...

It hangs up there on an old cold bar
Above the poor souls who have gone this far.
It never withers; it never dies.
It needs no water; it's always dry.
...

You wanted a slow sad song.
One that you could sing along.
You wanted to write a tear jerker.
For the ages to hear.
...

Hey Mr. Angel..
Would you grant me a wish.
I wanna give back as much happiness.
As I can inflict.
...

Through grace and solitude.
Im missing what I had with you.
The tears dont seem to stop their flow.
Inside my heart sadness grows.
...

He never saw it coming
The train just came too fast
Now his families crying
Praying their pain does not last
...

I am standing outside
The sun is shining
But its raining inside
I keep trying to smile
...

I feel so sexy in lipstick.
Smeared mascarra is my trip.
Strange obsessions in my life-
Being normal is a sacrifice.
