Grace Parker Poem
As we were driving down the road, it dawned on me just what I needed to do. I
turned the radio down and said I want to go home I need to talk to you. And as
we sat on the couch, a tear rolled down my face and you asked me what was
wrong. I said it's not about what's wrong it's about what's right, and why were
sitting here tonight. I took your hand and placed it on my chest and said can you
feel it, my heart it's just like all the rest. You looked at me and said what do you
mean? My dear, someone could love you more, much more than you could ever
dream. It's not that I don't love you, my sweet I do just don't love you as much as
I use to. It's not that I wasn't happy or because you made me cry...you have to
believe me, I don't choose how I feel inside. You pulled your hand away and said
that's enough. Then you feel to your knees and asked the lord above; why did
this happen to me I love her so much. You asked me is there someone else, and
what makes him better than who I am? I said, it's me there could be no other
man. Then why do you act this way and why do you want to go. I need to find
myself I just need to know. Know about what you yelled, I said who I am, and
what I'm capable of, don't you understand. What if I don't want to understand,
what if I don't want to hear; what if I held you close then maybe all of this will
disappear. I said it won't change a thing and I've made up my mind I have to let
you go there is so little time. You see I have dreams and I want them to come
true, but you stopped me in my path as I did of you. I know you want a wife and a
child of your own, but I want to sing, I want to write, I want a life of my own. You
said I can change, I can be what ever you want me to be but please, please don't
leave me. I said you are who you are and that is why I feel in love with you. You
shouldn't change for me or for anyone else, even if you have someone or
something to lose. You let me go and I walked out the door with out even
knowing just what was in store. I got in the car and drove away I turned up the
radio and listen to what it had to say...and a smile appeared on my face and my
heart felt light, it was then that I remembered that song you sang that night. I
remembered the way you stuttered, because you were so nervous, but you sang
with your heart. and as the song ended it's like my mind drifted away and the
word lingered on my lips "STAY."

Grace Parker Poem
Your my silent dream, my silent prayer, the one I dare not speak, for the one I
care.
You seem to move me, ,just like the way you stare at your self, you seem to
strike me, but you seem to keep your heart on a shelf. Your words I can not hear,
only read.
If I could hold you near, then we could be at ease.
My mind is so unrealible, for my heart is so true. but this love in undeniable, this
love for you.
The words I read cut through me like a knife, when I read that you want her for
your wife.
This silence seems so true, is this why Im drawn to you.

Grace Parker Poem
The night came down to just you and me. Everything was as calm as the sea.
How are bodies met and our lips touched? I felt your heart beat, so in tune with
mine, as my breath got faster so did time. I held your hand and you kissed my
lips, we laid there together in pure bliss. In the car I held you close and laid my
head on your shoulder, you grasped my hands as it began to get colder. Time
past so fast and we couldn't let go of each other’s lips. I just wouldn't let go of
your kiss. The last day we spent together was like a world in Heaven, it can't
even be explained, like why it's calm before the rain. I love the way you smile at
me when I sing to you, and there’s nothing else I'd rather do. You were so cute
with the way you'd sing along with each word I sang. And at that moment
everything that I felt that could not be done, suddenly became I can. With the
moon in the sky we said good-bye, it was time for me to go, oh these nights’ will
only know.

Grace Parker Poem
WAITING AND WAITING, WAITING FOR YOU
RUNNING AND HIDINGWANTING THE TRUTH
YOU TELL ME YES YOU TELL SURE
WASTED AND CRUMBLED AND YET SO DREPRESSED
WHEN WILL THIS HAPPEN, WHEN WILL THIS WORK
WHEN WILL I LEARN AND WHEN WILL IT TURN
IT’S HUNGRY AND HOLLOW AND NEVER LEAVES
IT’S WANTING JUST TO FLY AWAY AND JUST GRIEVE

Grace Parker Poem
SILENCE COMES AND THE SILENCE GOES
LIVE AND LEARN EVERYONE KNOWS
THIS DESASTOR RIENS HERE AND THERE
IT COMES TO ALL THERE IS NO CARE
CAUGHT UP IN YOU CAUGHT UP IN ME
CAUGHT UP WITH ALL THESE THINGS WE SEE
A PERSON SO VEIN WITH THIS HEARTLESS SOUL,
LET THIS HEART GO
I DON’T BELONG TO YOU KNOW MORE
I’M SOMEONE NEW
FOR IT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE PAST,
NOR THE PRESENT
BUT CAN YOU LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES
I DOUBT IT WITH ONE LOOK AT YOUR FACE
LOUD YOU ARE AND YES I RESPECT IT ALL, BUT FORGIVEN YOU ARE NOT
IT IS THE PAST I KNOW SO GOODBYE EVEN THOUGH I STILL LOVE YOU SO.
