Jeffrey Hilton Poem
I AM, I WILL
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
2019
I AM THE DREAMER
I AM THE DREAM
I AM THE NIGHTMARE
I AM THE SCREAM
I'M THE OCEAN
I'M THE SAND
I AM THE SEEKER
I AM THE SOUGHT
I RUN, I STOP
PART OF EVERYTHING
I'VE SEEN
A LITTLE BIT OF BLUE
A LITTLE GREEN
I'M THE RAVEN
I'M THE DOVE
WHO SAYS I'M NOT
THE EAGLE
THAT SOARS ABOVE
I'M DOWN IN THE CIRCLE
I'M UP IN THE SQUARE
DOWN BY THE RIVER
YOU'LL FIND ME THERE
I'M ME, I'M YOU
I SEE A MIRROR
I LOOK
STRAIGHT THROUGH
I'M SO HOT
I'M SO COOL
A LITTLE SERIOUS
A LITTLE BIT
OF A FOOL
I'M SUNSHINE
IN BLUE SKIES
I'M RAIN UNTIL IT DRIES
I AM EARTH, I'M SKY
NOTHING GETS BY
THAT I CAN'T
PASS UP OR HIDE
IF LOVE COMES
THEN PASSES BY
LEAVES YOU EMPTY
MAKES YOU CRY
I'M THE REASON
YOU DON'T HIDE
IN YOUR SADNESS
I AM YOUR
HAPPY AFTER RHYME
LOOKS LIKE
I'M RIGHT ON TIME
ITS NOT ME ITS YOU
TAKE THIS THING
TURN IT AROUND
I'LL BE THE SILENCE
WHILE YOU BUILD
I'LL BE THE SOUND
I'M THE DARK
UNTIL THE DAWN
THEN I'M LIGHT
FOR YOU TO CARRY ON
I AM YOUR LOSS
I AM YOUR GAIN
FAST OR SLOW
I'LL BE YOUR WORK
I'LL BE YOUR PLAY
THE WORDS WHEN
YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO SAY
I'M THE PUSH
I'M THE SHOVE
THE LITTLE VOICE INSIDE
YOU CAN'T IGNORE
YOU CAN'T DENY
TAKE YOUR LOWS
AND MAKE THEM HIGH

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
GHOST MOON
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON 2019
THE NIGHT TURNS
TOWARD THE DAWN
THE SKIES
STILL CARRY THE STARS
THE MOON YAWNS
AT THE RAYS
OF THE RISING SUN
A ROOSTER CROWS
WAKING UP SOME
ANCIENT DREAM
SOMEWHERE
DEEP INSIDE
WHERE THOUGHTS LINGER
AND INDECISION
FIND A PLACE
TO HIDE
BLUE SKIES FULL OF SUN
SMILE BACK AT ME
REEL ME IN
LIKE A LINE
TURN FOR ME
UNTIL I FIND
MY WAY INSIDE
YOUR BEAUTIFUL HEART
KNEW YOU'D COME
TO FIND ME
AND AS WE TURN TO GO
THE THINGS I WANT TO SAY
GO UNSAID
BECAUSE YOU ALREADY
KNOW THEM
I FALL SILENT
NEXT TO YOU
YOU TAKE MY HAND
YOU TAKE MY HEART
YOU DRINK MY SOUL
NEVER FAR APART
THE MYSTIQUE PREVAILS
WOULD YOU WEAR MY LOVE
WOULD YOU BE
THE FOREVER
BEFORE ALWAYS
SAIL THIS OCEAN
DANCING OVER
THE DARK WAVES
WHILE A GHOST MOON
CHASES THE CLOUDS
LOVE LIES LAUGHING
IN THE GRASS
ON A SUMMER AFTERNOON
MY BEST FRIEND
FROM START TO END
ALL MY DREAMS
ALL YOU ARE
EVERYTHING
HELD TOGETHER
OUR LOVE
YOU AND I
CRASHING THROUGH
THE DARKENED WAVES
A GHOST MOON
CHASING THE CLOUDS AWAY

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
VELVET STEPS OF GREEN
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
MAY 2019
THE TREES ALL PAINTED
IN MORNING SUNLIGHT
THE BIRDS
GIVE THEMSELVES AWAY WITH SONG
LAZY WATER SHIMMERS
IN GLORIOUS LIGHT
LEAVES TWIST AND FLUTTER
IN A RESTLESS BREEZE
HERE AND FAR AS YOU CAN SEE
A DAY FIT FOR A CROWN
A DAY POINTED UP
INSTEAD OF DOWN
DREAMY SKIES DRESSED IN BLUE
CLOUDS SCARCE AND FEW
THE SILENCE IS ROARING
CAN YOU HEAR IT TO
WHAT IS IT SAYING
WHAT ARE YOU FEELING
A MEASURE A HINT
THE DAY AS IT GLOWS
WILL HEAL BY THE SUN
PROBLEMS DISAPPEAR
ONE BY ONE
NOW OR NEVER
THE TIME IS RIGHT
AN OWL STIRRED TO FLIGHT
WINGS SILENTLY FROM THE TREES
SO MUCH GOT INSIDE
MY HEART, MY SOUL
MY LIFE
I NEED ROOM TO BREATHE
BIG OPEN SKIES
A PLACE I WOULDN'T LEAVE
CRYSTAL WATERS
VELVET STEPS OF GREEN
BIRDS SING THEIR MERRY SONGS
FROM THE TREES
ITS ONLY THE HEARTBEAT
OF THE DAY YOU HEAR
WHEN THEY LEAVE
A SILENT REFLECTION
A SNAPSHOT OF A MOMENT
CAUGHT IN TIME
IT WAS ONLY A MOMENT
BUT IT WAS YOURS AND MINE
THE SUN SLOWLY SINKING
LEAVING ITS MARK IN THE SKY
FADES IN THE BLACK LIGHT
OF DUSK
SUDDENLY SURROUNDED BY STARS
DREAMS WITH EYES WIDE OPEN
SEE THE MOON ON THE OTHER SIDE
OF YOUR SMILE
WE GO DOWN IN CELESTIAL LIGHT
THE FRESHNESS OF THE NIGHT
SENDS US ON OUR WAY
CURIOSITY SATED
THE SLEEP OF A THOUSAND DREAMS
A VISIT TO EVERY STAR

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
LOSE MYSELF
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
2019
I'VE BEEN DIGGING
FOR THE TRUTH
I KNOW WHAT I FACE
INTO THE ARMS OF GRACE
SURE AND PROUD
SHE WON'T LET ME DOWN
SHE WON'T
LEAVE ME HIGH AND DRY
WHILE I DECIDE
WHICH IS THE RIGHT WAY
SHE KNOWS I KNOW
SHE'S WAITING FOR ME
TO COME OUT
WHERE I SHOULD
SHE KNOWS I CAN
SHE KNOWS I WILL
SHE SAID I WOULD
SHE KNOWS IT RUNS DEEP
SILENT AND TRUE
EVERYTHING TO
APPEAL TO YOU
KEEPS YOU COMING BACK TO ME
WE BOTH KNOW
THAT'S EXACTLY
WHERE YOU NEED TO BE
FILL MY DAYS WITH
SO MUCH LOVE
THAT I DON'T HAVE TIME
TO LOSE MYSELF
IN ANYTHING BUT YOU
I CAN, I DO
AT THE END OF THE DAY
ITS ONLY YOU
THAT I CARE ABOUT
WHEN THE SKY LIGHTS UP
WITH EVERY STAR
ALL I NEED TO SEE
IS YOU BESIDE ME
WHERE YOU ARE
AT THE END OF THE NIGHT
IN DAWNS GLOWING LIGHT
AS LONG AS
YOU'RE BESIDE ME
I'LL KEEP UP THE FIGHT
TOMORROW COMES
AND ALL THAT'S CHANGED
IS THE DAY
TO BE EVERYTHING
TO FEEL THAT WAY
I KNOW ONE DAY
I'M GONNA FIND OUT
I KNOW WHAT I FACE
THERE I GO
INTO THE ARMS OF GRACE
LOSE MYSELF IN YOU
HOW FAR ITS HARD TO SAY
I'LL FIND MY WAY
BECAUSE OF YOU

MY LOVE, EL AMADO
MY LIFE
GIRL I HAVE TO TELL YOU
THE SWEETEST DAYS

IF YOU BELIEVE

POUR ME OUT, AROUND YOU

I KNOW WE COULD
EL CARINO WE COULD
SWING FROM THE MOON
HANG OUT WITH THE STARS
KISS ME IN MIDNIGHT'S BLUE
RIGHT UP TO THE DAWN
THEN CARRY ON, I DON'T MIND
KISS ME EL AMOR

KEEP THIS GOING
TO THE END OF TIME
AND SOMEWHERE BEYOND
WHERE IT ALL STARTS AGAIN
BUT THERE'S THE HERE
AND NOW
THAT I ALWAYS KNEW
I'D SEE
ITS YOUR LOVE I NEED
AMOR NO LESS
THAN WHAT I'VE
COME TO KNOW
YOU'RE ALL THAT'S

TAKE ME OUT
LET ME GO
YOU'LL SEE MY
INITIALS ON YOUR SOUL
I HOPE YOU NEVER FALL

I CAN FEEL
IN THE END
ITS YOUR LOVE THAT'S REAL
EL CARINO ITS NOT OVER
EL AMOR NO LESS
AND SO I MUST CONFESS
BLESS THIS ALLEGIANCE
THESE TWO HEARTS
THAT LAY BENEATH
THE STARRY SKIES

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
NOTHING SHORT OF BROKEN SKIES
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
DEC. 2019
NEVER WAS THE NIGHT
JUST OUR OWN LIKE THIS
TO RAISE US UP TO BE
ALL WE'LL EVER BE TONIGHT
THE AIR OUTSIDE
SO PURE AND STILL
NO WAY A HEART CAN
KEEP THIS MUCH
LOVE INSIDE
HOW DO YOU FEEL
WHAT ABOUT YOU
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
THAT CAN DO THIS
WITH ME
YOUR HAIR STEALING
THE MOONLIGHT
I WOULDN'T BREAK
YOUR SPELL
NEVER BREAK YOUR HEART
WHEN I'M WITH YOU
TOMORROW IS
ANOTHER SWEET PROMISE
LIKE THE STARS
IN THE HEAVENS
SHINING DOWN
ALL AROUND US
I KNEW THEY'D FIND US
ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
I KNEW I DID
I DO
WANT TO HOLD YOU
UNTIL THERE'S NO MORE TIME
UNTIL THIS WORLDS
NO LONGER
YOURS OR MINE
NOTHING SHORT OF
BROKEN SKIES
COULD STOP ME
FROM GETTING TO YOU
I CAN SAY
WHAT YOU'RE THINKING
I CAN TELL
WHEN YOU NEED ME
AND WE'RE APART
WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
I GET LOST INSIDE
ONLY UNTIL
YOU LET MY LOVE
HOLD YOU
ALL NIGHT LONG
UNTIL THE LIGHT OF DAWN
COMES TO FIND US
IN THE SUMMER LIGHT
NEVER WAS THE NIGHT
LIKE THIS DREAM WITH YOU

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
BLOOD ON THE MOON
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON OCTOBER 2019
WOUNDED WARRIOR
BROKEN WING
CONSCIOUS OF EVERYTHING
MOVE IN SILENCE OF NIGHT
TRAVEL LIGHT
THE HOURS BURN AWAY
RIGHT INTO THE LIGHT OF DAY
KEEP ON GOING
OR DIG IN AND STAY
HE LIVES EVERY DAY
LIKE IT COULD BE HIS LAST
CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND THERE'S THE PAST
HARD TO LEAVE BEHIND
YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE IT BEHIND
IN SO MANY WAYS
HE'S STILL
OUT THERE ON THE LINE
NOSE TO THE WIND
BATTLE READY SENSES
THERE'S SOMETHING
COMING IN
FOR GOD AND COUNTRY
FOR GOOD OF MAN
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAID
IT WAS NEVER THEM
THAT WOULD TURN UP DEAD
A LITTLE BIT OF PAY
FOR A PRICE ON YOUR HEAD
AND INTO THE FIGHT THEY WERE LEAD
AND JUST LIKE THAT
THE WAR MACHINE WAS FED
BLOOD ON THE MOON
A BLACK EYE ON THE SUN
RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE
A WAR THAT CAN'T BE WON
BACK TO THE START
ITS FALLING APART
GOING IN CIRCLES
A NOT SO MERRY-GO- ROUND
A BOY TO A MAN
IN AS MUCH AS
HE COULD STAND
WITH THE END
ALWAYS THAT NEAR
LIFE BECOMES
A LITTLE MORE
THAN IT EVER WAS
EVERY OUNCE OF ENERGY
GOES TO
KEEP YOUR HEAD
ALL THE THINGS
NOBODY SHOULD EVER SEE
BURNED INTO MEMORY
BLOOD ON THE MOON
A BLACK EYE ON THE SUN
THERE'S A CROSS
FOR EVERY MOTHERS SON

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
IF IT WAS ME
WRITTEN BY
JEFF R HILTON
APRIL 2020
GO, I'LL GIVE YOU A HEAD START
IF YOU DON'T DEPART
I'LL KEEP YOU HERE WITH ME
THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT
MAYBE THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE
SO GO, NO,
I REALLY DON'T WANT YOU TO
I'LL STAY RIGHT HERE WITH YOU
MAKE THE NIGHT, DISAPPEAR
FORGET THAT IT WAS EVER HERE
I FOUND YOU
ITS LIKE HEAVEN
TO BE AROUND YOU
SIT RIGHT DOWN
I'LL MAKE YOU SOME TEA
AND YOU CAN TELL ME
ALL ABOUT WHAT MAKES YOU TICK
MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
LIGHTS UP YOUR EYES
SOME KIND OF SWEET SURPRISE
IF IT WAS ME
I WOULD LOVE YOU AS HARD AS I CAN
THAT'S WHAT I'D DO
MY HEART ALWAYS FILLED
WITH SUMMER SUNSHINE JUST FOR YOU
STRINGS OF MEMORIES
STRUNG OUT LIKE THE STARS
CHASING AFTER DREAMS
LOVE FLOWS JUST LIKE WATER
TO BE CLOSE TO YOU
FILLS MY HEART
RIGHT TO YOUR SOUL
SURE YOU COULD REFUSE IT
BUT WHERE ELSE WOULD IT GO
CHASING THE LIGHT
ALWAYS LEADS ME BACK TO YOU
LIGHT AS SPRING
WARM LIKE SUMMER SUN
THE TROUBLE WITH DAYS LIKE THIS
IS THEY COME AND GO
SEEMS THE ONLY ONES WORTH REMEMBERING
ARE THE ONES THAT YOU'RE NOT ALONE
IF IT WAS ME
I WOULD LOVE YOU
AS HARD AS I CAN
IF IT WAS ME

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
TOO LATE TO RUN
WRITTEN BY
JEFF R HILTON
2020-04
EACH TIME I REACH FOR YOU
I REVEAL A LITTLE MORE
SOMETIMES I'M OVER CONFIDENT
SOMETIMES I'M NOT SURE AT ALL
I TRUST YOU WON'T STOP LOVING ME
I CAN'T ENTERTAIN THOUGHTS LIKE THAT
THINGS THAT SHOULD NEVER BE
OUT OF THE SHADOWS
INTO THE LIGHT
THAT'S RIGHT I'M GONNA FIND YOU
WRAP MY ARMS AROUND YOU
I'M CIRCLING ITS TOO LATE
FOR YOU TO RUN
TURN AROUND LOOK INTO THESE EYES
PEER THROUGH THE WINDOW TO MY SOUL
AND YOU MIGHT SEE ITS REALLY ME
THAT'S GOT A HOLD ON YOUR HEART
MEANT TO BE FROM THE START
HOLD ON DON'T GO AWAY
MOVE CLOSER AND STAY
TELL ME EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT
BUILD SUSPENSE IF YOU DARE
I KNOW I'LL LOOK AND YOU'LL BE THERE
FINGER TO YOUR LIPS YOU
DRAW ME WITH YOUR HAND
I FALL PREY TO YOUR PLAN
CRYSTAL STREAMS
STARS THAT SHINE
PASSING BY
LEFT IN TIME THEY GLOW
HEAVENS LIGHT AT MY FEET
I LET GO
FALL INTO YOUR SOUL
BLUE EYES LEAD THE WAY
WHILE MOONLIGHT PLAYS ON THE WALL
DON'T WORRY I WON'T LET GO
ITS TOO LATE TO RUN
AS WE WOULD KNOW
DANCING IN THE SHADOWS
UNTIL WE OWN THIS NIGHT

Jeffrey Hilton Poem
MOONLIGHT AND WHITE
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
2019
MOONLIGHT AND WHITE
FAR AND WIDE
ITS FREEZING OUTSIDE
STOKE THE FIRE, HUNKER DOWN
DARK EYES DREAM
OF SWEETEST SUN FARAWAY
SAND INSTEAD OF SNOW
WHERE WARM BREEZES BLOW
I COULD SOON FORGET
THESE DARK
NORTHERN DAYS AND NIGHTS
THAT LEAVE ME COLD
I'M JUST HERE
AGAINST MY OWN ADVICE
I SHOULD OF HEADED SOUTH
INSTEAD OF BEING
STUCK HERE
IN THIS SNOW AND ICE
DOWN IN THAT SOUTHERN SUN
HOW COULD A HEART
NOT BE LIGHT
INSTEAD OF A STRUGGLE
JUST TO KEEP UPRIGHT
MAYBE I COULD SLOW DOWN
TAKE MY TIME
TRADE MY SNOW SHOVEL
FOR A FISHING LINE
NO ANOTHER STORM WILL DROP
ADD A FEW MORE FEET
TO THE TOP
SOMETIMES ITS JUST
TOO MUCH CHEER
FROZEN FEET AND
FROZEN BEER
I LOOKED UP TO
THE MOUNTAINS
YOU KNOW
I WATCHED THEM SLIDE
CLEARED A PATH
A HALF A MILE WIDE
THIS ICE AND SNOW
I DON'T KNOW
IT BRINGS ME DOWN
MAYBE I WOULDN'T
CARE SO MUCH
MAYBE I WOULDN'T MIND
IF I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE
I WAS GOING SNOW BLIND
MOONLIGHT AND WHITE
BLUE TO BLACK
ITS A LONG WAY BACK
