Melissa Hurst Poems

Some sort of rare want
has plagued me.
Triggers of insanity
has brought us here.
...

My heart washed upon your shore,
empty and ignorant.
An attentive ear drew near
and gave it unique attention.
...

Shall I consider him fiction?
Or a beautiful non-fiction that existed
in my fictional life?
...

Tis a celebrity who once loved his fanatic
A paper face once knew my lips.

The famous is nowhere near
...

Swollen thing
white it will bring.

I stare as it aches,
...

My safe haven,
O sweet heaven,
just a bullet away.
...

Upon the floor,
You have become such a bore.

Without a care,
...

Coins cast
Will fate come fast?
Fated future, come and last!
...

Red-bearded beautiful boy
With God as his passion
But with me he is coy
And teases with seesaw compassion.
...

Eaten alive
Consumed inside
The dark shroud is near
I lay idly, devoid of fear.
...
