Madeleine Wolf Poems

I look into your eyes
And I see my entire future.
I remember all the past goodbyes,
And think of the beautiful, painted picture
...

The types of sounds
You hear at 1: 30 am
When you should be in REM
Are amazing on our campus grounds.
...

Please promise me
You will go carefully
You may feel sad
But you have to believe it won’t be bad.
...

It’s nobody’s fault
That one possesses fear.
It is a voice
That everyone can hear.
...

I want to,
Need to
Build a pyre
Set a fire.
...

This is something
Worth remembering.
A place that had only beginnings
And no endings.
...

Let your mind roam free
Think of all the possibilities
In a peaceful, happy way.

What could dreaming possibly do?
...

I want to,
Need to
Build a pyre
Set a fire.
...

When I walk along this path
And climb this steep hill,
I feel gentle drops of rain
Brush against my face.
...

When I see what you wrote,
So many things I want to say come into my head.
They all get stuck in my throat
And I stay quiet instead.
...
