David Harris Poems

All my life I’ve always worried
what others thought of me.
When I was young, I was self-conscious
about the way I looked
...

Some roads are long and weary
with plenty of troubles to get through;
sometimes it seems there is no end in sight.
Our self-esteem is failing
...

Each day we cross
the bridges of uncertainty
never knowing what
we might meet when we get there,
...

A reflection of a lonely life
is one that is sealed in silence
within desperate calls
that go unheard by anyone.
...

I am not a rude or ignorant man,
but there are some things,
that I will not do.
Unfortunately, I do not like
...

How many times have we heard it said
I told you so
when you do something wrong.
It is as if they are some kind of genius,
...

In a candle lit room
with an open fires glow,
you sit arm in arm
passing the evening through.
...

When the night wind chills your heart
when you are away from home,
you wish you were back there
tucked up in your warm bed
...

The tracks I leave behind are hidden
for future generations to find.
Hidden within a facade of words
that sprout up like new shoots
...

Sometimes we yearn for pastures greener
than the ones we already share,
virgin territories yet to be explored.
Not all pastures are greener
...
