Tell Me Why

Dedicated to those who not only love reading poetry,
but who love writing poetry as well.
Peace be with you!
I hope you can somehow enjoy
the poems in which I have written.


Best of Times

Spend all your special time with me
few things we find in life are free.

With all the summer days so long
my love for you keeps growing strong.

The best of times are when your there
of hearts, and minds, and bodies we share.

D.S. Clemons


The Universe

Lights in the sky so far away,
if only they could communicate
what would they say?

That life is present ever so,
how would we reply
if asked to go?

To scan the universe so far
finding life exists
on every star.

Our minds can only imagine what may be,
behold the universe
for our eyes to see.

A vast infinity we are told
without honor,
as slaves of the universe we are sold.

To escape this mass,
to be on our own
we find again, we are all alone.

D.S. Clemons


Why?

Why do you want to hurt me?
Why do you cause so much pain?
Why do you want to destroy me?
What do you hope to gain?

Why do you say "I'm sorry"
and promise not to fight?
Why do you always argue
and always need to be right?

Why in the past did you break our vows
of the love we pledged to share?
Why can't you find it in your heart
to tell me that you care?

Many years have come and gone
as my lifetime slips away,
instead of something beautiful
sadly, I face yet another day.

A day in which I wonder
where will I sleep tonight.
Have I done something wrong
that will start another fight?

Each night to God I make my prayer
that He will spare my life,
that He will protect me once again
as I try to be your wife.

I don't know where I am going
or where this all will end.
I only wish you could love me
if nothing else - pretend!

D.S. Clemons
