Robin Pitt Poems

She hides her life
Behind a smiling face
Yet inside
Something is missing
...

One cold winter's night amid a storm
I heard a knock at the door
It was Death asking to warm himself
Beside the fire so I let him in
...

The snow, so white and pristine
Is only a cover for what's underneath
While I am not
I've been disgraced and chased
...

For so long I ran from her
From Death
I closed my ears to what she sang;
Refused her lessons
...

Down a lonesome road one day I met the Earth
She was tired but friendly
So we sat and talke a while
I asked the Earth
...

I'm drowning in the sea
Someone keeps pulling me down
And I realize I'm going to die
Because I can't catch my breath
...

For too long now
We have remained silent
While our brothers and sisters
Still suffer and die
...

Maybe you can't see
The frustration
Inside of me
Maybe you can't see
...
