What does the word love
conjure in your mind?
Hearts, flowers, joy,
and does it make you blind?
...
What fragile bauble
is my heart.
So freely given and,
so quickly, broken apart.
...
Grey on grey,
and darkness comes.
Fearful feelings suffocate,
no light is seen.
...
My thoughts howling round my head,
like the storm raging outside the window.
Will I end like the tree,
ripped and smashed from earthly anchor?
...
I could give you a flower,
Who’s beauty was never before seen.
But it would pale and die,
Next to the wonder of your being.
...
As we sit together, on
this still, warm, mystical, summer night,
warm and soft, how you women are.
Unfortunately, it is often true for you,
...
Oh silly are we lovers,
with foolish pride to heed.
That we would lose what precious is,
on some trivial deed.
...
She is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Something hoped for to reach and bathe in,
but forever just out of reach for us normal mortals.
Now I am near the light and see
...
I have never asked much,
From any in this life.
Not from friend, lover,
Enemy or wife.
...
Life has been hard,
with many downs.
But none so low,
As I`m feeling now.
