Alexander Klein Poem
(Meant to be read fast like rapping)
I’m trying to place all your beauty and grace
And to chase and embrace every memory that ever was
Hunting past ghosts and old posts and love notes to see if anything can jolt this mind of mine
But it’s gonna be a while in denial till your smile turns the dial and resets this heart of mine
And it’s gonna take time to remind the divine to align the design inside this soul of mine
The fact of the matter is
I’m back and I’m better
Like a post script letter
And I promise I will never fetter
I wish you could comprehend the twists and bends this journey sends me on
I wish you could see the glee inside of me that frees the seas and shakes my knees
I want you to hold my heart that beats in part and won’t depart from next to you
Stay close
Don’t go
Wait a little longer and I swear I’ll have the flow
Come step
Inside
Let me show you why this is love I can’t deny
In time
You find
Every little thing I did had you in mind

Alexander Klein Poem
It grips you like a dying man
On his last breath with regret to reveal
It weighs you down like cement
Tied to your legs before entering the water
It drives you crazy like the second hand
Running in circles on the clock
Fear is debilitating like a missing leg
Preventing you from standing up for yourself
A war forever waged across the battlefield of life
Each victory prepares you for the next fight
Each defeat sends you running in retreat
Fear is a guest not welcome in your home
Do not let it past the threshold
Fear is a tenant not paying rent
Evict it before it tears your building down
We all have within us the tools to succeed
Use strength as your hammer
Confidence as your nails
Constructing your salvation
Building your freedom
Once completed, maintain it you must
For fear has no place
In your brave new world

Alexander Klein Poem
To sprout from your creator
To be nurtured and fed
Surrounded by your family
Only love ahead
Growing up
Days pass by
Seasons change
The love survives
As time runs out
You try to hang on
Your family smiles
Tells you to come along
As you fall to the earth
With the wind on your back
No longer afraid
Love always intact
When you return to the earth
There is no more grief
One more season
In the life of a leaf

Alexander Klein Poem
My soul hungers
It searches for satiation
Constantly craving convergence
Thirsting to thrive
My soul, the devourer of dimensions
Digesting the universe and filling the vacuum
An unrelenting engulfment of the unknown
Feeding on novas of knowledge
My soul creates
Tendrils trace out to terraform
Gestating galaxies
Shaping spatial surroundings
My soul, the cartographer of the cosmos
Sailing the solar winds
Navigating the nocturnal nebulas
Venturing through the void
My soul needs nourishment
My soul yearns for yours

Alexander Klein Poem
I miss her like the rain in June
Like a breeze on my cheek
I miss her like a cliffhanger
Like a whisper at night
I miss the way her eyes
See my every intention
Guide me through her soul
And watch over me
I miss the way her voice
Weaved into my very being
Words carry me into oblivion
And cradle my existence
I miss her like a gentle kiss
Like the moon’s reflection on water
I miss her like a promise kept
Like a love that never aged
I miss her now
I’ll miss her then
I missed her once before
I’ll miss her every moment till
I’m her’s forever more

Alexander Klein Poem
Whispers and echoes
I’ve known you before
Souls touching and singing
Through lifetimes adored
Hold on so much tighter
The wait nears its end
Soon dreams manifest
And for you I will send
Home is with you
Safely snuggled next to me
A life so deserved
You are finally free
I’m yours forever
With you I’ll grow old
On this journey together
Two bodies one soul

Alexander Klein Poem
As the clock ticks
The stars tuck me in
Each second passes into oblivion
The night welcomes me
Eyes stay open
Body grows weary
The final flickers of activity
Closing up shop inside
As the clock ticks
Shadows dance on the wall
The blankets clutch me
I feel every part of me
My soul lays down
Body grows weary
Closing up shop
As the clock ticks
Noises wish me goodnight
Questioning my resilience
Mind begins to fade
Body grows weary
Closing up
As the clock ticks
My pillow holds the world
Dreams overtake reality
Body grows weary
Closing
As the clock ticks
Body shuts down

Alexander Klein Poem
Never has a silence been so deafening
Throwing static in all directions
A thousand words screaming from the mind
Filling the void with copious confusion
A moment into a millenia
Breath is held like a door for someone who isn't coming
Thoughts are solar flares
Every previous interaction is recalculated
Nerve endings tense
She whispers back
"I love you, too"

Alexander Klein Poem
When the nights are cold
And my soul seems broken
When the fire inside needs care
And I don’t have any more wood
There you are to tend to my flame
To heat my world
When sadness takes precedent
And the subsequent storm approaches
As the rain pounds my head
And the thunder shakes my convictions
There you are to give me shelter
Wrapping your heart around mine
When I am laid bare
And my scars are on display
As I cringe at each one
Frightened they are my undoing
There you are, tracing with your hands
Accepting every wound
My imperfections
My mistakes
Each blemish and cut
I am not perfect
But you love me like I am
And when you stumble
And worry you aren’t enough
When your light dims
And the thunder rolls
There I will be forever
Holding you just as you held me

Alexander Klein Poem
Your beautiful visage envelopes me
In my darkest hours
I stare into your waxing glow
Can you stay a little longer?
I count the hours each day
Till our next meeting under the stars
So badly do I want to hold you
Why are you so far away?
I know one day we will converge
And I can wait a little longer
As the days become months
My love will not wane
Just as your light will never dim
