Samantha Collins Poems

I am blind
but I don't need my eyes to see
what this place has become.
I can see the love and the hate
...

i open my eyes to see everything pass me by;

i see my dreams
and my mistakes.
...

your my father
but not my dad.

i'm your child
...

we all are born with a light cast over us
and this light follows around like our shadow
but it changes based on the way we live
and the way we are.
...

I know it's no surprise
you knew what i was
you chose to get closer
to let me believe.
...

and when i look at you
I can't see your imperfections
and everything seems to
fade away, away.
...

When your busy taking care of everyone else
you lose yourself.

your wishes become the needs
...

your no where, when your anywhere
your everywhere, when your no where
you don't know if up is down
or left is right.
...

As long as the sun shines through, My love will be waiting for you.

The last love i had
left me on my knees
...

I can't be happy
for i don't understand.
It's like a foreign island to me
a place i'd like to be
...
