Thomas Howe Poems

I can't take the mental strain
It's worse than any physical pain
We always expect the most
From the ones we hold close
...

I never look at the stars
It reminds me of my scars
That brought me great sorrow
Of the promises of tomorrow
...

You can’t hide the lies
I can see it in your eyes
So just give your goodbyes
...

I hope you don’t care
But I like to stare
While you are asleep
Don’t think that I’m some creep
...

I want to be mad
But you look so sad

You say you didn’t mean it
...

I always have seen your desire
It has finally caught fire
Spreading out of your heart
It’s going to burn us apart
...

You have serenaded me
Not with your love from your heart
But with hate that has torn us apart
We were two that became one
...

I can't shed one tear
I must over come this fear
You make me this weak
Where is the courage I seek
...

A light breeze
The birds chirping
The start of a great day
So I thought
...

All I see is grey skies
Flashing across my eyes
The emptiness inside
Is like the ocean’s tide
...
