Deana Rode Poems

Do you care if I am happy,
And that I’m proud?
Do you like to see me smile,
And not drown in my tears?
...

Glass heart
fragile and frail
beautiful and naive
do you fear to fall
...

I'm sinking into the depths of my madness again
thinking of things that only bring the shadows;
...

Last night I had a scare
and woke up finding it reality
That your beautiful warmth
is not with me anymore.
...

Could you give me some sign
that your faith in me is strong?
Your voice is all I hear
your language is all I understand
...

Dance with me by the light of the moon,
Play with me in the beach tides of noon.
Sit with me by the glow of the sun,
Run with me ‘till the day is done.
...

A glass hallway with no escape
Nobody can ever get in
I can never get out
Watching the world with narrow eyes
...

I know not if I can make love to you
Although I agree to sleep with you

My ideas of love are shaded with gray
...

I want you to reach for me
to cry out as I dissapear...
hoping for a romantic scene
that was never going to materialize
...

I want the tears to stop
I want the pain to fade
I want my death to reverse
I want my dreams to be beautiful again
...
