Wisteria and Ever Afters
Love Songs flute cover
Wisteria and Ever Afters
💜
Whenever I see wisteria, I think of you
You and that moon on the water,
The candle, the wine
And the gleam in your shining eyes.
How my heart raced like a Serengeti gazelle
Being chased by a lion
My mind kept telling me to run away
While my heart demanded that I run toward.
And so I did........that starry night
Falling into your arms, your eyes
My mouth devouring your mouth
With a new appetite that would never be sated.
You made that shy girl into a woman
That woman into a princess
And the princess into a queen
A queen that knew she was loved by a king.
I remember how our bodies fit together
Like puzzle pieces,
How the moonlight highlighted the sweat
Running down them like liquid silver.
My hair draped over your face,
I bent to kiss you
With a kiss I had only just learned to kiss
As your fingers wound 'round my curls.
I was suddenly afraid of the urgent sounds
That issued from my own throat,
The breath that went out of me
And came rushing back like a violent storm.
I remember you said you loved me
And I felt it with every fiber of my being
Even though love had ever been foreign to me,
It coursed through my body and blood like a fire.
Afterwards, you wove strands of wisteria
And placed the purple crown upon my head
You made me feel serene and regal as you bowed
And then again, like a wild thing in your arms.
And then again, like a wild thing in your arms.
And I loved you back. god, I loved you!
The touch, the taste, the sight, the scent,
The breadth, the length
And every inch.
In two day's time, you were called away
--Not that you wanted to leave--
But the way of war overrules the love of life
And does not care how an unscripted fairytale ends.
Every time I see wisteria, I think of you
Your lips on mine, the sweet red wine
The moonlight and the water
I was your queen and you were my king...........
And that night was our happy but brief ever after.
