Cynthia Grieser Poems

I found you in he song of the sea.
Since then you have been all water to me.
You are the peace of the still brook waiting.
You are the joy of a hot spring laughing.
...

When people look at me they see an ordinary girl
But when I look in the mirror?
I see an extraordinary story
I see that the prince came before the happily ever after
...

I heard you in the whispering wind
I saw you in the setting of the sun
I met you underneath those clouds
And I loved you through the storm
...

No matter how much I cling it slowly slips away
And all those vivid colors are fading into gray

That golden gleam is now a red rust
And all those snow white pages have turned into dust
...

I used to be strong before I meet you
I used to be calm before I meet you
I used to be giving before I meet you
I used to be nice before I meet you
...

With a kiss on the cheek and a basket in hand
She sets off for a magical land
With stars as her guild and bends in he road
What lies ahead is hard t know
...

I can't believe you left.
I can't believe you lied.
I can't believe you left.
You left me here to die.
...

You tell me life is fair? Look around.
Is it fair I work longer hour to be pad less money?
Is it fair jobs are turned down, because of the color of my skin?
Is it when an item goes missing my family's accused?
...

A picture's worth a thousand or they always say
I never understood that saying until you're letter came-that day
We had written back and forth, thousands upon thousands of words
Yet you when that picture came that day you finally came to earth
...

In a few more years this wouldn't have happened
In a few more years they could tell the truth
In a few more years it would have been legal
But this didn't happen in a few more years
...
