Michael Carlson Poems

I feel my hair blowing in the wind
I feel at ease
Wishing I could forever float upon this breeze.
To never again be pinned.
...

Ghost
I see them
They swirl around me in a violent torrent
Their eyes are white
...

My mind starts to spin
My thoughts bump around inside my brain
It causes me so great of a pain
My world begins to twirl
...

I wish i could fly
Fly off into the endless night sky
Away from all my pain
That's been making me insane
...

I never really imagined me
The me in the future, who I'd and where
People ask me, but all i do is stop and stare
Staring through them, it's like i cannot see
...

Follow me to the edge
If nobody wants you anymore
Follow me to the edge
If people throw you to the floor
...

Crimson Fire
Raging on Inside
Flowing like the ocean's tide
Telling me my heart's desire
...

I stand on the brink
Staring down into the black
I hated all those shrinks
Now I'm standing at the edge of this crack
...

Down in the grove
Grows long wavy wavy grass
Down in the grove
Grows a mighty ash
...

I wonder what its like
to feel no sense, no feelings in your head
Would it be like you're still alive, but you're already dead?
I lay awake, lay in my bed
...
