superdude's blog: "My Poems"

In My Mind by Bob Gallagher Is a clear, brisk night at the beach better than a good storm Hearing that song that only relates to one moment, one person Knowing that you have made a difference in someone's life even if only one Hearing waves pound on the sand when you need to clear your mind Knowing someone thinks you are a great person What if you would have told that special person your feeling earlier, whose world would be better Remembering childhood memories and sharing them with someone who cares Watching the love of your life smile if for no reason at all Knowing things should be perfect wishing they were Wondering what my one wish would be Have I created myself or merely followed a path Who judges me by what I do and does it matter Can life be any better can it be any worse Is someone reading your script Am I really OK with dying Have I done everything I need to do Are my kids as happy as they can be Why was I put on this earth and am I accomplishing that purpose Is there anyone listening or am I alone

Late Night Red Light by Bob Gallagher There's no one around, no one to care. Yet still, I sit and stare, in apprehension, fear, and excitement at the luminous red orb above. Ahead lies darkness. The left and right are less ominous but quite possibly as dangerous. The well lit, cliffside roads of yesterday and yesteryear are all that occupy my rearview mirror. There's no one around, no one to care. Yet still, movement is something I dare not dare.
