Weldon Davis

I make you smile
The reasons why
Uncertain
...

In addiction
I lost a lot of old friends to recovery
I was stuck on the same
Principles
...

They send our boys
To die like dogs
In the Arabian swelter
Picking out roadside bombs
...

Oldies station plays a
Love song although I wasn't there when
Disco died
...

All the pain
All the struggle
All the late nights
I stayed awake
...

There is a sadness in my eyes
I need not explain
A lonesome whistle blows in the background
A midnight train
...

Like weasels they snicker
In dark corners
They laugh at the idealists
The poets
...

These words mean nothing
The pain it grips
I just wanna feel something
So I let em rip
...

Each day beautiful insights
Come
Some subtle some in visions
Maybe I'll comprehend them
...

The food sucks
Have ya begging for
Ramen noodles on canteen day
In the cage
...

Return to sender
Return to me
Return to me forever and ever
Returnity
...

Life is funny
So I laugh :)
All that I own
Shoestrings and a bag
...

Our love is the simple things
Like giving each other
The proper amount of space
To be ourselves
...

I will take you under
My wings
Teach you things
To keep you safe
...

One day at a time
I'll find the new me
Discover talents I never
Knew I had
...

We used to go there as kids
To explore
To jump dirt hills on our bicycles
To wage mock wars
...

I saw you
By the wayside today
Wearing a sweatshirt
And daisy dukes
...

A friend of mine said today
That while in jail
All he needed was to
Be with his girlfriend
...

This philosophical love leads to profound realism
Intensified by nights spent in this prison
Every instant I'm away from you
My deepest love is in limbo
...

I have an envy of Adam
I'd give my rib for an Eve
In the garden of Eden
With a god to believe
...
