Michele Walker Poem
Standing in the rain he looked at her, as she looked away
Drops of black tears down her face, but not from any pain
“Do you feel; do you even know what it is to love?”
It’s an indescribable feeling she thought, but the words delayed
Nothing felt right at the moment, nothing felt true
He stood and thought to himself, everything she portrays is subterfuge
All the beautiful words she wrote, all her little billet-doux
They’re just words; she doesn’t show anything she says
Knelt to the ground, he would kill for her if it ever came down to it
But if things got to boiling point, he would run and flee of it
She shuts down; his eyes are too intense to look into
Filled with hurt and sorrow, but the hope of tomorrow
She sits ashamed with a guilty face filled with ingénue
She’s never been in such a place, he is just sick of it
“I’ve been here before, and you haven’t!”
Love is not doubted, but time surely is unknown
This is still the beginning; there is still time to grow
Love is not guessed, Love is what they know
No other time before compares to the time here and now
The air is colder and the shivering over conversations subdues
Deep exhales exchanged, alluvion eyes to eyes corral
A forgiven embrace of the lips, collisions of hands meet
“Everything is worth fighting for, and you’re worth it to me”
Tender woes disperse and burning blushes die out
Tonight they lay impassive, and all cried out
I won’t let go
I won’t let go either
I won’t walk out
I won’t turn upon neither

Michele Walker Poem
I’ll Be Fine (at least for tonight)
Cover my heart in rapid vines,
Safety pin it to my skin, and blot down the lines
The thorns don’t have edge like the needles and pins
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Shield out deceit, re-occurring lies
The truth bleeds out through the love we demise, sullen eyes
The lights aren’t so bright, yet the stars won’t lose its shine
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Protect which that is left, in my soul
Keep me blind, hold my hands back towards an open sky
Protect the barrier that keeps us aside
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Bury a voice that left unspoken
Face the fears embedded in visions unbroken
Carry tides of promises you won’t abide
You’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Stretch open the seal that binds our tide
The red will not fade no matter how hard you grind
Into the earth you unturned, crystals divine
You’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Lips red deep, yet the smile has grown a shade darker
Sitting so still, our minds couldn’t be much farther
I’ll walk away and be able to say I’m fine
We will be fine, at least for tonight.

Michele Walker Poem
I am thinking it’s a sign, just when I’m thinking I am alone you always seem to be
able to come and join me in my MIND
I have now come to terms, when I mumble and we get in rumbles you’re always
the first to get down and grumble FIRST
And true, I may not speak my mind, but please forgive thee for my vocals are
weak and my emotions just intimidate ME
For you, accepting all of me, though my feelings play hide and seek you’re
always able to catch and grab a firm hold of ME
They will say what they want to say, but we’ll never separate, no not now, but
somehow
They will see if there’s a higher being it doesn’t matter what one believes this is
my vow
I will pray to whom it may concerns my sins will burn I may show apathy, but trust
me
I’ll do what it takes to join you in the pearly gates it just takes time, to cross that
line
So I won’t say no, but know there’s heighten hope

Michele Walker Poem
I just run on by, my life there is no surprise
Could I -fade away to a better day?
Lights they shine and I can’t seem to hide
Is it that we all just live to someday die?
It’s just to the stars where my dreams seem so afar
If the mountain caved would the sea just take it away?
I won’t stay another day
Is there anything better than giving all of me away?
I won’t stay another day
Take back regrets and just let it seep sulking wet
If I say sorry, will you still trust in me?
Tie back broken lies, if you cried I’d just might
See a whole new side; a man lives through sorrow times
Carelessly we rewind, back to the stages we were blind
But you unwrapped the fold, and now it doesn’t seem to be so cold
Maybe I’ll stay another day
And maybe life just doesn’t seem to be a waste

Michele Walker Poem
Captivate me, your eyes start to roll and I’ve heard that sigh once before,
Carry me down, their opinions gutter in the back of my mind and I’m lying here
buried on the floor,
I swore over and over again their words matter to me not anymore
Infectious details don’t enthrall the passion that we endorse
Captivate me, your mind starts to wonder what your eyes are beginning to see
Love I thought was lucid, it only matters what’s between you and me
I’ll love you down, deep into the ocean waves crash into what you want to believe
Lustful eyes don’t bother me, my vision isn’t perfect, but my heart’s still ruling
passionately
