Fireflies And Memories (8-28-07) Poem by Bobbie Jean Wright

Fireflies flitter in the skyline
and your best drains the best of me,
and going forth with another dream
is not as easy as it seems

and I'd die to feel your touch
or at least to hear your voice
but I would erase that memory
If my heart gave me the choice

Your leaving stole my very core
and now I'm buried in yesterday
with all the childish fantasies
that would never come true anyway

but you could have been so kind
as to take this broken heart
instead of plaguing me with dreams
you never intended to impart

and feeling don't come easily
on the contrary I'm paralyzed
everytime that I feel you tug
at my mind, my heart, my thighs

Just finish what you've started
go ahead, break my heart into
only don't forget your memory
when you take what's yours with you.

I refuse to sit here pining
I have too much to focus on now
A life without you here with me
will find tomorrow somehow
