Slavia
My stomach burns With the quaking tide, When you play with my toes, When you tickle my pride. Take me away To your far away land, Buried like dust In the prints of your hand, Where your smile doesn’t crack, And fade, Before the hours Draw into days. I lay in the bed Of a [...]

3. September 2007
Unlike a lightless chasm, No deep mystery to fathom. What I may or may not feel Is un-vital. Hardly real. Yet you are. More than the rest. I love you all. Or do my best. In a world I longed to find With all my blue moons left behind On the far side of the [...]

Since I remember you, Since I can see A wind blows within you That blows within me; Since I still know you… I finally found you. A long time ago, you Wore music around you. Caught in a spell; Trapped in time, tied You’ve gone through hell Since the first day we died. Before the [...]

31. July 2007
Long before Autumn, Long before June, I sent you blue roses Beneath a white moon. Almost six years ago, Under the sky, I watched the stars And I swallowed a sigh. You spoke of sunshine And laughter and life… I remained red-eyed, Saddened with strife. The wind of your woes was As much as I [...]

If you see a sunset, it’s me, smiling From behind it. If I go away far, and you see a star If you find it, I’m inside it. You can fold it, and hold it forever, If you hide it. If our words and worlds sever — if ever I lose you; If two thousand [...]

9. July 2007
When I no longer stand here by your side, At night beneath the moonlit milky way; When I no longer kneel with you and pray, And swear to you with stern, unshaking pride That I will never travel far away… When I my faithful promises betray, And on the far side of the earth I [...]

27. June 2007
Let you go and set you free Free Free to be from me. Let it lie Fly away. Forever more See the day Close the door. Forget the way I cling to you. Forget the love I bring to you. Happy happy you and me? Let you go and let you be Happy happy you [...]

21. June 2007
Hunger conquers. Love considers. As life concedes and pain bewilders. Anguish strips us of our shielding. Cold. Relentless. Ever-wielding. Yet we let the anguish pass Forget, and hide amongst the mass. Even I who swore to never Seek cold comfort, cruel forever; Even I found yellow rest, In the days upon my nest, Long descended [...]

21. June 2007
Into the captivity of your heart, We let our blue balloons depart; Into the twilight of the sky. Into the night. Where our shadows still fly. Three years later, too far from the sea, Having escaped, having broke free, No longer a lone poet, surrounded by boors, I felt a lone virgin, surrounded by whores. [...]

21. June 2007
I have a friend Who is always with me, Whom I am always with, Whom I am often alone with, Who is often alone with me. But sometimes we need others To hike through the jungle of life. She is me. Written by Anna Williams at age 10 Barnstable, Massechusetts
