robert down Poems

She had left my palm
Right when she was closest to my heart
She has fallen through my fingers like grains of sand
Fallen into the grasp of another man
...

My brain is overload...overfilling...spiraling...spinning...with a thousand thoughts of knowledge, and need, and its in there churning like milk to cream.
Its overflowing...spilling out... and yet it wants to be crammed in till there no space for it...with more and more.
However it may not have the capacity to hold it all.
It must come out...relaxing...with content and with passion...
...

'Yeah you are'
It's been a long time but your just the same.
I never loved her; I'm glad, now she's in your throne
And you stay idly in her's, not caring for the soon to come pain.
...

Our streets that sleep
Instead choke and weep.
With their woeful guilt
as they begin to wilt.
...

My love perishes as my heart dissolves
And I do not blame them, I blame no one.
My thoughts diminish as they
Are taken apron by the wildest of thoughts:
...

My dreams consumed by you, so was my heart
When you stole it, you could keep it from me
Until it could return to pump these veins
That keep my mind as a shrine to your heart
...

Friday nights of endless Waits,
Deacon sine waves and vocal plates.
Saturday mornings piano jazz,
No time for contemporary fads...
...

The light was bright, and now diminished.
It's glow soon faded, and as ever darkness prevailed.
Brightness slowly crept up upon us,
Slowly and with no haste.
...

To most it rushes over us like the waves above the pebbles.
They rarely touch except for their quick glimpse into the unknown.
To others is consumes them.
They are rock pools that are smothered until they die.
