Weldon Davis Poems

I make you smile
The reasons why
Uncertain
...

In addiction
I lost a lot of old friends to recovery
I was stuck on the same
Principles
...

They send our boys
To die like dogs
In the Arabian swelter
Picking out roadside bombs
...

There is a sadness in my eyes
I need not explain
A lonesome whistle blows in the background
A midnight train
...

Oldies station plays a
Love song although I wasn't there when
Disco died
...

All the pain
All the struggle
All the late nights
I stayed awake
...

Like weasels they snicker
In dark corners
They laugh at the idealists
The poets
...

Red bull and pepperoni pizza
A smile
And I'm back
To thinking of you again
...

These words mean nothing
The pain it grips
I just wanna feel something
So I let em rip
...

Your beauty goes without saying
Intoxicated by your laugh
I can't help but smile
Your lips snarl and pout
...
