Roisin McNally Poems

I used to be there.
I used to sit with those
People because they were just
Like Me.
...

It all used to be okay.
I had friends, side by side.
We laughed, we talked, it all went so well.
But in a second it was gone.
...

Clenched fist
Broken bones
Foul words
Broken heart
...

I am not a pretty girl
A smart girl, a thin girl
I am that girl who sometimes cries
Because I have a reason.
...

A best friend, I feel like she's there
By my side, laughing in my ear
Despite being a sea apart
Her spirit lives where she has walked.
...

I stand before you now, my love
Fallen from the skies above
As the moonlight pours upon your skin
Lighting up your darkest sin
...

In the twilight I strolled through the misty woods
With the stars and moon arising above
The leaves rustled softly among the ground
And there was silence coming from the dove.
...

Death is comes in three.
But little know.
A single person dies
2 more after.
...

The night was silent like a sleeping bird
But came a hard heavy rain
I sit outside with you in my arms
As I'm soon overwhelmed in pain.
...

He stood before me
The Angel of Death.
Hair as black as the night
Dark wings of a fallen angel
...
