Baily Mcclanahan Poem
Wripped page...
Was it so bauetiful,
so much so to be hidden,
from view of men?
Did they spill their soul upon a page?
Until fear came...
To paper became a cage.
Trapping their soul in a deminsion,
of their own creation...
Take pity upon a poet's heart.
Taking pain upon themselves
Not much sanity in finding pain,
Taking the curse of humanity,
who said we're sain?
For we are the ones that in vain,
See through the cracked glass.
To see through a lense never gained.
Through sadness comes beauty,
from pain comes perfection...

Baily Mcclanahan Poem
Drop,
drop,
drop!
Constant drip into the sea,
but thou cannot see,
the drop once it's gone.
Forever bound to the sea.
All that's left is the sound.
The constant echo!
The ghostly rythem...
A beating heart
only noticed when we listen,
to reinsure our fear
of a feirce reality!
Never constant,
a beat of feary,
Joining our thoughts,
When we understand the truth so weary.
Another beat to fuel the flames,
to make it to tomorow's day.
We try to find another way!
We always fall on the beat of a weary heart.
To stop the beat
Shall end the sorrow
So tomorow's day
Shall not destroy us.
Feary is the fear,
of a feirce reality.
That we can't forget!
Even when we ignore the beat...
Beat!
Beat!
...
Beat!

Baily Mcclanahan Poem
Tell me a truth.
I'll tell you a lie.
I will not oblige to tell you the reason!
Why?
Deception is the greatest truth.
Deception is simplicity.
Black and white picture,
seemingly beautiful.
Close to perfection.
To the unobservant eye.
Appearing to connect,
In a sympathetic nature.
Embodying an illusion.
Alluding to the truth...
Avoiding depth.
in many shades of grey...

Baily Mcclanahan Poem
Walking through these halls,
I feel the arrow penetrate...
Hitting the walls!
That could never sedate.
The words you spoke.
The ones I hate.
If U knew I would go through pain.
Then that day,
U should have never looked my way.
The arrow was Aimed at my heart,
but it was to late to break.
What's already shattered!
Scattered across these faded memories...
Why did U say the words,
if U didn't want them to hurt?
Burning through my skin!
Trying to let the memory free...
But then i'd see!
How it was supposed to be.
What I should have done sooner.
Instead of waiting until it was over.
I had everything to loose,
and nothing left to gain.
You took a shot at me.
And I should have seen.
That it wasn't meant to be.
But I stepped in front of your arrow...
I should have jumped for cover.
But it was a hit in the moment.
The sweet taste of the words,
I should have said.
If I would have known What lied,
in the future tide.
Some ships are not meant to sail.
We crashed!
Never to be risen...
And I would rather hate you,
than cry myself to sleep...
and see the truth,
that I hide behind these walls!
In these lonely halls.
