Poem Artwork

 

I wrote this song for you
Although I must have dreamed you               
Still I am amazed
You have no eyes
For me to analyze
Perhaps a shade of blue
 
A tale of you and me
Delicious fantasy
Yet saturated
With uncertainty
 
True love is worth the fight
On this lonely autumn night
Forever
A long…. long time……
 
Is my soul prepared?
For the sacrifice required
Are you sincere?
The ONE that I desire?
 
Unconscious suffering
Intellectual bleed
Hope within my brain
Why are you my need?
 
Experiment in pain
Attraction surreal
Inadvertent mind games
Such rhythm…
Still I feel
 
Wishing things were different
Somehow…
Things shall all work out
Yet knowing better Linda
My mind floods with doubt 
 
Don’t toy with me dear lady
Coax me down a path that leads to nowhere
For I’m a dreamer too
Much farther gone than you
 
Fate
A bitch indeed
When it offers no completion
Whether chemical distraction
Or simply mental illness
Screaming for reaction
 
Closure is an open door
Despite the social dance
Courage to step through it
One never truly knows
If it’s our last chance…….
