Linda Racaniello Poems

Imagine a carousel
Ornate and gold
Where children delight
And stories unfold
...

Lost the will to live and survive
got caught up in criminal ways
drugs and guns and fugitives
that's how this story plays...
...

Poets in awe
beauty of the sea
swimming the ocean
begging to be free
...

Oxycontin grinded down for a snort
A poor mans heroin of some sort
Snorted for an all time high
As one sees life pass them by
...

Mirror, mirror, tell me why
The reason in which my heart can't comply.
What is it missing; where is it found?
Truth in which my emotions are bound.
...

When I was born, I was alone,
but as I grew, I learned about you.
Growing up wasn't bad, I had plenty of toys,
and in my teen years, I had plenty of boys.
...
