William D Hearns Oct 2018
when will I forget what your skin feels like on mine? when will I stop smelling your shampoo on my pillow? when will I stop seeing your auburn hair in a crowd? when will I forget you?

October
William D Hearns Oct 2018
Smoke drifts through the air,
Sere leaves burnt in a pile.
A chill in the air, but a warm sun.
Stretched out like a cat on the crisp grass
That smoky wind blows by.
How long I’ve waited for you.
My burnt orange heaven.

Hunger
William D Hearns Oct 2018
Trumpets scream in my ears, the drums pop, blood trickles out. I have no love to give, only obsession

I dread the  good dreams of you more than my darkest nightmare

Try
William D Hearns Sep 2018
Try
I can touch you,
I can't feel you.
I can kiss you,
I can't taste you.
I can hold you,
I can't help you.
I am with you,
I'm not there.

Voyeuristic Medium
William D Hearns Aug 2019
Five hundred texts a day
Take the hearts away
After your name
Just “name” in my phone
How can a phone contact
Be a ghost
Can a text be in a poem??? Cool

Ocean of the eastern shore
William D Hearns Jul 2019
I showed you the poem
About you
And you loved it
And asked me who it was about
