you be like forest deep green forest in my mind,blocking my view, with scents from you. I be like trapped in you roots get free then trapped in ur branches
you be like forest in my mind
now i am blind, just loving, pumping, running blind
so humble....so humble








there was a time when i could taste you on the wind

smell ur skin on the leaves

watch them breate

lay in the grass and

stay covered with clouds of you

I knew you loved me it hurts me how things turned out to be

i lay in showers for hours

reminiscing

tasting you inbetween sighs and tears and water and soap

wishing I hadn't f***ed up the time while you were here

while you were here, while you were here

pumping, running and loving

i knew you loved mehope you knew the love i had in me

for you

while we were pumping, running and loving

you didn't know how to stop me from flying

when you much rather be sun bathing

you couldn't stop me from flying even with green/blue waters

and sand and you...cause I knew it was just to good to be true

you'd fly when I closed my eyes

there was a time when I cursed you blind

loving you with my every being

I'd taste you, filling my hole with you

breathing

"When i could taste you on the wind"
Beautiful phrase!
Nothing arcane here,
Just down deep real emotion,
and imagery, that touches the soul
of this reader.
Blessings ...

Strong work of art here that emotes emotion like a fire gives off smoke. We can feel the mind and heart working and trying to come to grips with the past...well done Mitzi
