Portia Lane Poems

When a mother cries,
Her tears stab at her daughter's heart
As they plummet to the floor
...

when a mother cries
her tears stab at her daughter's heart
as they plummet to the floor
...

Dear love if by chance you ever find me
My heart and I beg you keep your distance
Please do not make your presence known to me
Promise us you will hide your existence
...

Broken

Broken promises
Broken words
...

Longtime no talk
Longer time no see
Got me goin crazy over here
See what you doin to me
...

Glaring at a blank page
A perfect virgin white

Pen in hand, yet topic unclear
Of what will this poet write?
...

Where are you my dear friend
I have searched hi and low
These eyebrows have grown weary
They miss you more than you can know
...

I never want let you go
But ill probably never tell you so
Cause If I do you might never leave
Don't want you wasting your dreams on me
...

Tears I've held in for years
I fear, have been released
The pain that reigned my childhood
has found a way back into my heart
...

In the depths of solitude
Disquieting thoughts
Force weary eyes
To wait hopelessly open
...
