Sarah Persson Poems

I glance across the moon lit beach,
The grains of sand squelch under feet,
Impossibilities, become real
But all that's real is out of reach.
...

All I see is distance,
With no spaces inbetween,
A rock without a resting place,
A deadly fall without the scream.
...

My mind, a field of red,
A work of art within my head,
My eyes, a solemn green,
Casting glances, never seen.
...

As you lay here beside me
I can see beyond your smile
Your heart, the normal charm you have
Is lost here for a while,
...

So much to say,
But no words to speak,
So much to see,
But eyes that can't seek.
...

Sometimes our hearts cascade in shades,
All colours masked like seasoned seas,
A blossomed tree that's sparcely thorned,
A hero in life yet bravery scorned.
...

I sit here, yes, in these four walls,
I sit here and I wait,
For time will surely pass this way
And make me leave, as if I'm late.
...

Sometimes I live inside my mind,
Sometimes I step outside,
Sometimes my thoughts are vivid and deep,
Sometimes they don't exist,
...

Fly free little bird,
Fly free, spread your wings,
Soar over the seas,
Over rivers and things.
...

On shallows of grass,
Through the hills made of green,
The houses are built,
Mainly few n far between,
...
