Numb


You numb yourself,
In the hopes that you may forget,
All the things you forgot to forget,
Now you remember too well,
Its on these things the brain dwells.

No escape from here my dear,
Trapped in a hell,
You built for yourself,
Locked the door.

Made a bed on the coals,
So they could burn you some more,
They slowly cook your soul,
No place else left to go,
It makes you shiver to your core.

Mommy Loves You

The love I feel for you all, Will never run out, So never despair, It is in my heart, Distilled especially for you, True love, Beyond compare, No need to share, There is enough already there. You have all heard my heart beat from in there, Oh how I love you and your beautiful stares, Mommy loves you, Know that love shall never fail.

Dreams

Your voice has been missing from my life for years, And yet every night, I see you vividly, Within my dreams. © 2019 MK AC Nevin-Crooks Love Life Poetry
