Paul Warren Poems

If I could see through the night
Would I have left you when it was not right

I should have held you and loved you
...

Build yourself a home
Where you can be alone
And rest from your labours
Don't worry about neighbours
...

Sit on a hill and look over the plain
See the clouds rolling by bringing in the rain
Take a boat on a lake as you drift along
Hear the music from the shore as you sing its song
...

He thought the thing to be
Was tougher than the others you see
So he crafted armour to protect his start
With a breast plate thick across his heart
...

The blood seeped into my eyes
As the last wound was a complete surprise
When the duel was in its heated fight
Swords clashed in the dying light
...

I'm tired of you bringing me down
When I should be getting around
I don't need the endless grief
And things being taken like a thief
...

Sun warm on my back
As the pick breaks hard ground down
Drought soil bakes solid.
...

Neo-Nazis March in hate
And innocence dies as it relates
To freedom of speech for us all
How do you reconcile it in your call
...

The solar winds push us on
As we sail the universe in song
We are a billion years old cosmic dust
Gathered together in life a thrust
...

We need to return to the peace hard won
When evil was defeated and harmony belonged
In those days we knew who was right to prevail
And did not have questions of whose side wouldn't fail
...
