Paul Warren Poems

Silently....
Waiting again
Watching the clock
Tick over slowly
...

He stood in his laboratory in a haze
The dreams of the machine consumed his days
Working hard and not sleeping well
He created a torment and torture working hell
...

You'd be crazy to go
They said it would show
It's dangerous there stay home instead
Then I didn't feel any dread
...

Promises like good red wine
Spark the day and become intwined
Sentiment turns to melancholy now
For time well spent together we know how
...

Dark days bring forth the rain
As I trudge through the mud again
I'm awaiting the new day
When the sun will return I pray
...

If you want to feel me
Walk a mile in my shoes
Just close my eyes
And feel what matters
...

Making war against children
So hateful and vile against innocence
How can a god let them into heaven
If your last act kills and maims
...

Is there anyone to look up to any more
In other days there were ones who knew the score
Leaders who would do what was required then
And excuses would not be needed in the end
...

What role do you play
As you live your life day to day
What do other people expect of you
Is there a way to act it through
...

Have an idea in your head
Don't dry up as you dread
Continue to write without a block
Surely there is more to say or mock
...
