Lisa Engleman Poems

Standing by,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.
...

Sometimes at night, when I look to the sky,
I start thinking of you and then ask myself, why?
Why do I love you? I think and smile,
because I know the list could run on for miles.
...

I went to a party,

And remembered what you said.
...

Sweet Spring is here, my dearest love;
The flowers are in bloom;
Their fragrance travels through the air
And floats into my room.
...

Everything I've done, I've done
Only for your love.
Everything I am, I am
In hopes your heart will move.
...

Let us go then, you and I,
When the evening is spread out against the sky
Like a patient etherised upon a table;
Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets,
...

Don't fall too deep
Into the death trap
There is nothing to gain
And everything to lose
...
