    Author

    Kias Emmanuel Creech

    Kias Emmanuel Creech began writing poetry in 1987, at the age of 14. He loved putting his thoughts and feelings down on paper. From that first poem, he wondered what all his heart had to say and it didnt take him long to realize that words really are power. When someone can relate to something he has written; if it can make them feel better, smile, even cry, it is a gift to that person to help them with what means something to them through his writing. Also published by Kias Emmanuel Creech are From the Heart and Literary Coffee Break.

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      Notes

      Composed September 8, 1998 By: Kias

       Uncertainty

      I’m not sure what to say

      But I’m certain how I feel

      Everything I’m feeling

      Is painful & too real

      I’ve tried hard not to show it

      I’ve tried hard not to say

      But every time it touches me

      There’s no words to convey

      For anything this powerful

      just cannot be spoken

      it’s as delicate as glass

      and yet cannot be broken

      chaotic are the thoughts

      that run deep in my mind

      painful yet so soft

      that they wound me every time

      I tried to make provisions

      I tried to heal the pain

      but sorrow flows within me

      and, as blood, runs through my veins

      I see a piece of coal

      but to me a diamond shines

      destruction seeks my heart

      like a coming sign of times

      I really want to love you

      but my hearts not quite sure how

      my minds too scared to try it

      but it’s way far too late now

      I try to keep my chin up

      I try to shield my heart

      but it’s on the verge of breaking

      every time we are apart

      Please don’t take me wrong

      and don’t be lead astray

      there are only good intentions

      in all I do & say

      but hurt is repetitious

      and grips me every time

      it’s hard not to believe

      that I’ll get hurt again this time

      I didn’t mean to hurt you

      cause I know this sounds so cruel

      but it’s coming from a wounded

      lonely, desperate love-sick fool

      just dumb enough to try it

      just weak enough to fall

      just wishing that I knew

      if you loved me much at all

      Composed January 7, 2003 By: Kias
