Tanner Herndon Poems

Rich with insanity,
Thick with hate,
Drunk with love,
Stinking of confusion,
...

Eyelashes stuck in time,
Falling like leaves,
Stuck to our faces, they cling to safety,
Never wanting to let go,
...

I left the door to my heart cracked open,
I lured you in with curiosity,
But what you saw, shocked you to the core,
You must have cried lava, when you saw what was in this heart,
...

Come forth to write, leave not a thought,
To rot,
But a common enemy, in my mind,
Is set to stone, as the gargoyle,
...

I have an inside joke
With Death-
'Knock, Knock, '
Who's there?
...

I walked into the Barbershop
Dressed in all black;
The barber sat me down in a
Leather chair that swiveled
...

I can ask nevermore,
That you seek comfort from these limbs,
I am rooted in a soil far more damning than,
Anything you have ever seen,
...

Nobody dies alone,
Death, will not allow this,
Death will be right there waiting,
His black crow's wings spread open wide,
...
