Kevin Lynch Poems

So long ago are the days of
Undying happiness and joy,
Infiltrated by good times and
Cheery smiles from a little boy.
...

Tonight; a simple Summer's Tuesday night,
Following a lenghtly warm beautiful day,
With birds that chirp and trees that sway,
A beautiful day, with everything so right..
...

Look like the innocent flower, but the the serpent under it.
Wait behind the beauty, ready for your crime to commit,
Deceive those who are trusting, force them to regret,
All the kindness they have shown you, since the day you two met,
...

So long have I know these days,
So wicked and weary and wild.
I've know them what seems a forever,
Ever since I was a young child.
...

I remember a day, not too long ago,
The sun was something the clouds wouldn't show,
The rain was lashing, streets were like streams,
Sounds like a bad day, but not all is what it seems.
...

Flower petals... falling from the sky,
Swinging down slowly, from that place up high.
Twisting and turning, each doing a dance,
One lands on my palm, just by chance.
...

Screams of anguish, followed by screams of lore,
Come into my Darkplace, and soon be no more,
It's quite lonely you see, please come and sit with me,
And together side by side, we can fight it, or just hide.
...

Your sinister smile and your deep blue eyes
The way you trick with your crooked lies
You ignored my pleas and my terror-filled cries
But I still smile when I gaze into your deep blue eyes...
...

I'm falling...
I'm falling...
Down into a black abyss,
With no end in sight,
...

I'm only a mere weak and weary human wandering this wicked and wretched world,
Un-fortuned by society, my gifts and my traits. They all frayed me leaving me unfurled
And deeply defenseless to the daunting dangers that dwell within my distraught,
And delicate self. So many long tormenting years have I endured and futilely fought...
