Lauren Joy Poems

My dream was real
My reality was dreamy
No
It only lasted for a little while
...

Internal voices scream
They screech with pitiful craze
Scratching behind my eyes
They put me in a daze
...

My beautiful muse
My handsome one
How long must I wait?
Before I can hold you?
...

Whispers between two lovers
Warm and gentle on the face
Sweet nothings and savouring moments
Arms around the waist
...

I miss you my love
You're so far away
Out of reach
Out of touch
...

Restless and ruthless
Naively seeking
What cannot be found
Holding fast to a lie
...

Hold my heart in your hands
Guard it with your life
Please don't break it
You know I can't take it
...

I can't forgive myself
I can't let go
Of what I did
Of what I know
...

I want to know you
To hold and to kiss you
I want you to know me too
I want you to hold me
...

She sold herself for a penny
To an old man by the bay
Who asked her in
For a tot of gin
...
