Kathlene Ann Poems

When I hug this teddy bear
It almost feels like you still care.
We haven't talked in o-so long.
When e're I need you, you are gone.
...

If I can discern no point in living,
Why am I afraid of death?
Why do I fear pain and sorrow
And seek acceptance?
...

He wants to talk to me.
To me? Apparently. Yes.
I hesitate as my mind begins to race.
Shallow though pushed into the back of my mind emerges,
...

The feeling is common but temporary.
Or is it? Is life what it seems?
People yawn and laze and complain.
People say they've nothing to do.
...

Have you ever seen the city by night?
Seen civilization at it’s height?
Been overwhelmed by many a headlight?
And wondered what it would be like…
...

People have poisoned this world.
Every single one is selfish
And impossible to satisfy.
All care about nothing but themselves
...

My hope,
Boundless as an ebony mare running through fields of love,
Rises high as the stars above,
and far beyond.
...

Salty tears would taste so sweet.
All I want to do is weep,
But I don't cry.
...

The written word is my chosen form of expression.
Then why, with it, can't I let go of emotion?
I am overwhelmed by feelings, so confused.
My heart and mind are in discord. My soul feels abused.
...

In human nature the seven deadly sins are always present, though they often hide.
Sloth, Gluttony, Lust, Envy, Greed, Wrath and Pride.
Passion was sown into human nature at birth
So the race would continue to populate this earth.
