Wilfred Mellers Poems

Schatz

I remember tasting lips so sweet that they raised my blood sugar level.
Sweet lips are divine, so to wine and dine must be a crime.
...

My heart takes flight every time you are near

My world becomes calm, still, and crystal clear
...

Love is a malignant cancer. If you don't root it out it will infect the entire body
Love is a possession by an evil spirit. Not properly exercised will devour your soul
Love is a heart attack. Not treated in time and you will die from it
Love is a bad car accident. You need the Jaws of Life to free you from it
...

My findings are now lost in time
I will have to wait until next lifetime to find again
Gone now like the seasons
Dashed ashore by the tides of change to be smashed against the rocks of time
...

Chances are forsaken by the chance that I will miss
Signed verdict caste fate sealed with a kiss
Futures danced on the head of a needle
For I sir knight courting so feeble
...

Forever Now

Rapid is the heart that beats within me.
Knowing things that can never be.
...

I am writing you to let you know
My son how much I love you so
I miss you and I wish I were there
For you, I will always care
...

A shadow loomed on my sill so blue
Through my window, my bird flew
Filling my heart with such sadness
Gone sweet bird of happiness
...

My woman in the morning brings me joy
In the winter she brings me springtime
In the darkness, she is my illumination
The morning sunshine she is
...

Please tell me why you lied
Inside my chest, my heart has died
Looked me straight in my eyes
When you told me all those lies
...
