Kelly Batson Poems

Our lips had touched softly,
Mouths parting to be,
Our tongues intertwined,
Exploring the depths of the sea.
...

Can’t count on anyone this time
Trading faith for piece of mind
Seems your always needing time to heal
Scared of moments when you begin to feel
...

The silence masseurs my sound barrier
Breaking all that I am left inside, insanity
Letting go of the ones I care about
It’s become an art form, graceful
...

I’m lookin’ up to that cold starry sky tonight
Bout ten past twelve and the moons shinnin’ bright
Thought I’d kill some time and take a country drive
Clear my mind, remember and see if I’m still alive
...

It’s not alright I needed you tonight
You do something to me I can’t explain
And it never got old those stories you told
You had to go and it’s okay how I miss you now
...

I thought I knew it all
I never thought I’d stray back down your hall
And I left it, behind
But now I’m missing that place
...

I am so in love with every part of you
Every moment we’ve shared
And will share together in our future
When I felt like my whole world was coming down around me
...

A year and some change and I finally see
You’re not gonna come around for me
One step forward and three steps back
Walking blind down this one way track
...

I can fool even the ones closest to me to believing I feel nothing
A curse I can’t undo until I find someone to make me feel something
I curse myself for being the way I am
And hate the blind for not giving a damn
...

Here I stand behind wondering eyes
Oblivious to the contagious view
I‘ve forgotten how it feels to feel
Tangled in empty memories
...
