Broken Bed
William D Hearns Jan 2019
I'm drawn to your body:
I am the moth, You are my fire.
I caress your arms:
You are the song, I am your choir.
I kiss your lips:
You are the beach, I am your tide.
I lay you down:
I am the seeker, You are my guide.

Wither
William D Hearns Aug 2018
In crystal vases
Or wild on the vine:
All roses die.

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.

Chalky

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.

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

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

You never sing for me anymore
