Denise Brown Poem
My first friends
Didn’t even know
My name.
They called me
Number six
Because that was
My PE number.
On the day I left
I gave them my
New address
But nobody mailed me.
I made the mistake of
Writing my name
Instead of
Number six.

Denise Brown Poem
Zombie World
Zombies in the night
Who were people hours before
Rising from the dead
These slow predators
Are coming for us all now
It’s a zombie world

Denise Brown Poem
You’ll stay in my heart
Until death do us part
When the worms eat you out
And I’m buried in the ground
In the dirt with you I’ll lay
And forever and ever that’s where I’ll stay
I’ll remain by your side
Until with angel wings we fly
Life will never get dull
With you in my skull
You’ll never be alone
You will not face death on your own
You’ll stay in my heart
Until death do us part
When the worms eat you out
And I’m buried in the ground

Denise Brown Poem
You can lose the battle and still win the war
As long as you know what you’re fighting for
Because in the end it doesn’t matter how many times you fall
Or all those times you had to crawl
You’ll regret the times you didn’t even try
And all those times you pitied yourself and asked why
More than the things you attempted and failed
Because even the hero loses some fights in those fairy tails
So when you feel you can’t go on anymore
Remember what you’re fighting for
Even now you can rise from it all
This battle may be lost but that doesn’t mean all are
Today is not the day you die
It’s the day you’ll win the fight
And years from now when you’re old and grey
A tale of victory will be told for this day
By Denise Brown
Dedicated to my aunt, Jessica Wyer, who bravely fought breast cancer and won

Denise Brown Poem
Seeing you in pink
Takes my breath away
Relentless
And I want to paint it black
Now to match the weeds
Growing in my garden
Effortlessly

Denise Brown Poem
I do not need an umbrella
You don’t have to shelter me from the rain
I can carry my own weight
I can handle the pain
I do not need you to lift me up
I am not waiting
These aren’t tears that I’m crying
I am not hiding
I do not want your pity
Because I have not failed
Let me stand in the rain
Holding my own weight
I do not need an umbrella

Denise Brown Poem
Sometimes I’m mad
On those days
Nothing goes my way
And bad things happen
Sometimes I’m afraid
And I don’t know what to say
I just want to turn around
And run away
Sometimes I’m sad
And I forget what I have
I tell myself
Nobody understands
All the time I’m human
So I’m never perfect
But because I’m only human
That’s okay

Denise Brown Poem
Trust me
When I tell you
Life is hard
But it’s worth living
Sometimes you’ll
Fall down
And break your heart
In half
But in the end
You’ll be stronger than before
And you’ll know yourself
A little more
Trust me
When I tell you
You can’t
Find happiness
If all you do is
Look for it
You have to create it
From the dust
Trust me
When I tell you
Not to judge yourself
Too harshly
You’re only human
Less than perfect
And every once in a while
You’ll fail
And that’s okay

Denise Brown Poem
Blood flows from the wound
Scarlet pools down dirty streets
Those who live know their doom
Life is gone, death will greet
Tears are stained red
Blood mixes well with tears
The living lay on their death beds
The dead have no fears
