Poems by Javan

As the moon floated across the sky
And twinkled in the ripples in the lake
I sat silently beside you
And tossed pebbles in the water
From time to time you would squeeze my hand
And rest your head on my shoulder
There was no radio
No television
No pennies for your thoughts

Funny how quickly the hours passed
And how much closer I felt to you
Maybe more often
We should sit down together
And have a good, long "Silence"

"You might have loved me
If you had known me
If you had ever known my mind
If you would have walked
Through my Dreams and Memories
Who knows what Treasures
You might have found
Yes, you might have loved me
If you had known me
If you had only
Taken the time."

"I don't think it was selfish
That I wanted to be with you
That I wanted to share your laughter
That I wanted to protect you from your fears
That I wanted to be a part of your life

But I admit I had my needs,
I needed understanding
I needed someone to hold
I needed someone to talk to

For you can only hold a pillow for so long
And there's only so much you can say
To a dog."
