It Needs No Title

It Needs No Title

..

What I saw in you

I cannot say..........

And how you made me feel.....

I cannot say

because you make me tongue-tied

just thinking about it.

The way your eyes swept over me

like the sun taking a last picture

before it goes dark...............

Or like the chill and thrill

of an unexpected waterfall

Coming over a mountain

in the middle of a 

Hot..... Dry ....Insatiable.....

Desert.

you know that desert...........................

the one that cries out for LOVE's rain

in the thousand degree heat of a three year summer.

Yeah. THAT one. that one....that one..

..

the unbearable Heat of......of...

Um..............

what was I saying?????

Oh! I was trying to describe what I saw/see in you.

and how you make me feel...... felt....feel...I...

Something like that.  

I must be     Delirious.....

yeah....

that's it...

You make me DELIRIOUS

like the song.

spur of the moment reply

It's hot, ya'll 🔥 🔥 🔥 lol

All In Love Is Fair.....................not!

Consider Me...

 

If I Could I Would

 

If I Could I Would

If I could I would

But since I can't, I won't

Walk with you in sunshine

So your shadows I will haunt.

If I could I would

Lie with you in love

But I'll bathe you with my raining tears

From where I watch above.

If I could I would

Soothe your worried brow

But my soul has left it's suit behind

And I can't touch you now.

If I could I would

Mend your heart's shattered seams

But I can't meet you in the dawn

So I'll meet you in your dreams.

If I could I would

But I cannot and never

Love you like I used to do

But I'll still love you forever.

So Much For Fairytales

 

So Much For Fairytales

So much for fairytales

So much for truth

I thought you loved me

But I have no proof.

I thought the sun glowed

And shined for me

That you painted skies only

For my heart to see.

Never truly believing

In true love before

I believed when you came

You brought love to my door.

And the days just like flowers

Grew from soil that was dead

And the nights just like feathers

From two hearts made a bed.

It was moonlight and roses

It was starlight and rain

Till your soul drained of passion

Turned each pleasure to pain.

And our volume of poetry

Illustrated so fair

Now a book of blank pages

With no poems rhyming there.

The hero, the villain

With each purpose and plan

Dropped all masks and revealed

They were both the same man.

I don't read anymore

I don't dream, don't believe

I'm no longer the maiden

With her heart on her sleeve.

All my skies gone to gray now

All my laughter to wails

I see the truth and the fable

In your grim fairytales.

With your kiss, I awakened

From my sad dreamless sleep

Now I return to my slumber

And the darkness so deep.

Just a princess with no prince

Songless voice, void of laughter

You gave me 'once upon a time'

Without a 'happy ever after.'
