(impossible love stories that never come to be)
photo by Bernice Angoh
Impossible dreams
impossible loves
impossible lovers know there's not a chance the sun will ever get to kiss the moon
and how do you take the passion out of a passion fruit?
Hmm, impossible nights
unreachable heights
impossible lovers know the seas will never empty out
and how do you pull a star from a lit sky?
unforgettable moments
unfashionable whispers
untrimmable feelings that show
playfully I stand on your feet,
head against your white comfy sweater
arms that form a ring that cannot be broken
except maybe by a screaming alarm clock?
your play, can't call it work cause you're having too much fun doing it, is always a true pleasure to read. It is truly noble of you to even give the impossible love a stage and great verse to ponder this situation over with, cheers
I like in particular, Bernice, how this poem moves from the abstract and general to the personal and tangible..."stand on your feet, head against your white comfy sweater.."
I loved him. At age twelve he touched my heart with his music. At age twenty he captured my heart when our eyes met as he sat on a stage and sang Four months later, he fractured my heart with his refusal to allow us to stay together. At age seventy
