A little poem I wrote and thought was worth sharing. |
A life without you is strange A winter, unrelenting I find that simple joys are often disregarded The years that pass breed discontent, rather than laughter Though we have never loved You are but a dream in my heart I find myself somehow emptier as days pass Where must I go for our paths to cross? I, reluctantly, spend precious minutes with suitors many Worry not They know nothing of my body beneath clothing They are used only for their kindness- so that I may feel wanted I play those songs in the evening The melodies that will define our love when it is born I imagine it to be abrupt and undeniable Subtle to onlookers as our spirits erupt with vindication We were not fools for believing Where were you when the darkness danced through my valleys? What has time in store for you and I? Perhaps we are tested for good reason We must find ourselves first I will call you Spring and you will know me as Forever Those unflattering moments given to others will be abandoned Grateful we will be for them But no longer will we speak of times past Lover, I still wait Oh Fate, lead us to one another, I beg For my heart relinquishes pieces of its hope with each setting sun I wish to be burdened no longer |
