Patrick Oswald Poems

The Best Poem Of Patrick Oswald

A Love Held Dear

She was wild and stuck behind her face

Wondering how she got to this place

The past is hurt to come

No strength, the future is done

What will come of her there is no hope

Her hurt is her new dope



I can't help there is no fight

She won't let me see her through the night

The chisel had dropped from my hand

She saw through my best plan

Why keep going, why keep on

I feel like a left over pawn





For years I tried for years I failed

Like the coffin has been nailed

Did I try or did I fail

It was not for me to bring her from hell

That could be the hardest to see

What she did not need from me




I guess I have been put in my place

Having a truth sealed on my face

I love her, I love her so

She is the one who is in the know

The end is not here, her biggest fear

I will be left to hold her near
