Dave Alexander Poems

It’s been so long, feels such a long time, I have no reason and no rhyme,
When I left, it tore me apart; the pain has only dulled with time.
You said it was for the best, and we could still be friends,
But it turns out, like all things; it came to an abrupt end.
...

How do I convince you the time is right? It’s ok to love again,
To accept the pain you feel, both now and then.
You can’t change the past, what’s done is done,
Embrace the life lesson, hard fought and hard won.
...

I should have listened to that little voice, as it whispered in my ear,
All that time that passed, all those long years.
Finding the right words to say, to tell you how I felt,
I should have just said it, I should have just dealt.
...

It’s Christmas time, a time for cheer,
A chance to reflect on the past year.
On Christmases been and gone,
On tasks achieved and not done.
...

I want to share with you, a few simple thoughts,
Some of life’s lessons that I’ve been taught.
I don’t claim to know anything, or everything,
But these little pearls of wisdom are what I can bring.
...

Her eyes are so beautiful, deep sea blue,
Can’t you feel me looking at you?
Does she know how much I’d give?
I love her so, she’s my will to live.
...

You tell me that it’s ok? That I can trust in you,
That you’d never hurt me, it’s not something you’d do.
That relationships from before, belong in the past,
You say we can build a love that’ll last.
...

Should I tell you what I know, what he does, what he’s done,
The girls he cheats with, he says don’t worry it’s just fun.
He’s always been this way, it’s never bothered me before,
Now it’s wrong, why does he need more?
...

I’m sorry that I left you, I didn’t want to go,
It happened so suddenly, and now your filled with woe.
It was an accident, the report wasn’t a fake,
The car that hit me had no brakes.
...

You look so small and fragile, lost and alone,
Your feelings destroyed, your heart lays prone.
The tears flow from your beautiful blue eyes,
You’ve be crushed by all their hurtful lies.
...
