Meredith Fahey Poems

If I went to bed with you
Would I find you a god in the morning
Or the ghost of some late night regret?
What would I be to you?
...

Wrecked
I am broken
I am shades of darkness
Filtered through your pain
...

Tides of this lust
Sent crashing into bodies
Into pools of sex
Animals, demons, angels, fish
...

Here we are again
A year after we took leave of each other
In the same bed
Like time never changed our love, nor tore it asunder
...

I watched the moon fall down in your eyes
As the night gave way to morning
I had to go yet you had me linger still
Wanting to hold your nightingale
...

You are a constellation in my night sky
Guiding me home
Straight from the North Star
Until morning
...

It's been a week and a day
And I've lived a lifetime since I last saw you
Some days have been empty, some full
But I've lived them all
...

My love is built upon the knowledge of you
That I was so sure of
Until that one moment
When it all dissolved like a sand castle at high tide
...

I hear your voice
And suddenly I want to lay down
Close my eyes and wrap myself
In the sure sweet words of
...

Romeo- I would die for you.
Fingers tangled in tawny hair
Reflecting the morning sun
His head is heavy on my breast
...
